[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been vaguely offered the same for future (kid quite young) and went to a DC area private but what bothers is me is then all the kids are there because grandparents paying or parents make a lot. How can you keep a kid down to earth while in private? My sibling and I were but I really... struggle with that. [/quote] OP's kids are in the Whitman district. They are going to be surrounded by white rich kids regardless. Our kids went to DCC schools and the main good thing about them was keeping my kids grounded and in a diverse environment. But if we could afford it we would have gone private. I suspect Whitman might be the worst of both worlds - You have to deal with MCPS but your kid does not get the benefit of socioeconomic diversity.[/quote]
