I don't think you really believe this. There are plenty of good public schools and less renowned private schools where your kid could get a great K-12 education. Nobody puts their kids in private if they believe public schools are just as good for K-12. [b]Why would all those other things you value disappear once they go to college?

Because, genius, for college, we choose among hundreds of schools across the country. For K-12 we can choose from a handful that are within a decent commute from our house.

On a national basis, there are plenty of public schools that are just as good or better than private schools. That can’t be said for K-12 schools that are within a 20 minute drive at my house.

I can’t believe this actually needs saying, but apparently it does. [/quote]
