[quote=Anonymous]I yanked my kid out of a WOTP DCPS last year and moved to private. Best move I ever made. Fortunately, I can swing it financially, but many are not as fortunate given the high cost of living in this area. I bought my house in a top DC neighborhood a long time ago so switching to private makes most sense than going into huge debt for a more expensive house in the area. I do know that most of the parents in my neighborhood are going nowhere. They're patiently waiting for things to go back to normal. Frankly, they have nowhere to go even f they wanted to. They could sell their houses in a matter of hours of course, but there's no inventory (let alone affordable options) in areas with good schools such as McLean, Great Falls or Bethesda to buy. All in all, most DC homeowners will stay put unless they are leaving the area all together and going to a cheaper location. The severe real estate bubble around the country is limiting options for many. [/quote]
