[quote=Anonymous]A good part of your sentence makes no sense, but you seem to be saying that a single instance of a house near a private school selling quickly for more than the asking price establishes that proximity to private schools raises housing values. The anecdote shows nothing. The house could have been underpriced. Even if it was pverpriced, there could be something about other aspects of the neighborhood that made the house particularly attractive. There also could be something about Maret that other private schools such as GDS do not have. There is far more green space on the Maret campus, relative to the student body, than there will be at the new GDS campus. The architecture at Maret is very different than the institutional architecture proposed for the GDS expansion.

[quote=Anonymous]When the statement is made that private schools are bad for the community, and the retort is that the community home values are not the same as 'right next door' and yet, right next door there is a house that went quickly, over asking, then yes, the anecdotal makes the point.
