[quote=Anonymous]BTW, there are many middle class families with one kid in private and one in public. It happened in my family. I went to private, one brother did a combination of both, four other siblings did all public. It wasn't financial. My siblings all had special needs that publics could address better. Of my own two kids, both did a combo of private and public, but never at the same time and the younger one did more private than the older. Finances were a small part, but it was mostly socioemotional needs of the older child leading us to pick big public schools with many extracurriculars. I teach public school and see many families with kids in both. Sometimes, I have students who are only at my MCPS because a divot e changed parent willingness to pay. Private for K-8 is common, then a well-regarded public. But also, I see kids leaving MCPS after grade 8 for private DC and MoCo HS. [/quote]
