[quote=Anonymous]Private School requires a big investment of time and treasure. Single gender education is, for the most part, only available through the private school system. Coed education is , of course, available through the public school system (though DC public schools are not considered a viable option for many at the high school level). In this area, I would question the incremental value of private school coed education for those who have access to the Montgomery or Fairfax County school system (in fact coed private school enrollment is very small in these areas). If one believes that single gender education provides a significant advantage (and there is research on both sides), then private school may be well worth the investment. In the end, it depends on the child. There are some good independent testers and educational consultants in the area that can provide OBJECTIVE advice with regard to your particular child. Objectivity is not something you’ll find on the DCUM board.[/quote]
