[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in DC and our DC begins high school in 2 years. We have to decide if we pay the [b]big $ for private[/b] and stay living in DC or bite the bullet, sell our SFH and move to the suburbs for an A+ rated public. Both options feel scary. Only one adult would be commuting into DC. Any ideas which county and area would give us the biggest advantages? We are not interested in a pressure cooker school district ( rules out CC/Bethesda/ Potomac).[/quote] At 50K a year.. that is 200K total.. Considering that you could add this to his college found or buy better home and invest now I would think going with smaller and better managed school system seems like no brainer. In case you have the money to spend and a choice that most don't.[/quote] We sold. Moved to the suburbs, "for the schools". We were very disappointed. We now pay for a SFH in the burbs and private schools. Look at your entire lifestyle and decide where you want to raise your family. The public schools are about the same anywhere - including DC publics.[/quote]
