[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Because the DC area is not an impoverished backwater that kids need to escape from. If a nearby school is a good fit, they don’t need to fly far away in order to get a great education. Maybe if you live in small town USA you choose a local school in order to save money, but in big metropolitan areas that’s not the only reason to choose a local school.[/b][/quote] You lost me, assuming that other places are “to get away from”. Many are not.[/quote] New PP but no, I agree with the bolded statement above. It makes a lot of sense. If you're getting up at 4am to milk cows and muck out the stables and your entire summer is spent on a farm, you might, if you're intellectually curious, wish to escape that.[/quote]
