[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Generally speaking, I'm in the private school is nuts camp. But if you've already committed to 35K in tuition, don't walk away from it. Let your child enjoy a cushy K experience you've already paid for, and trust that you will get into a charter or DC PS school in higher grades when it is necessary. It is a lot easier to find a space at first grade or higher than for kindergarten or lower.[/quote]

What!!!  Why on earth should they trust they will get into a charter?  Oh wait, are you a religious nutter?  Cause only someone who thought they were morally superior would just "trust" this.  The point here is that she has a clear and known path to an entire educational experience with which she'd be happy.  Whether she stays in K or moves she's out 35k.  The only question is what happens in the out years.  On one side of the equation is a certainty of free education (the public path), on the other is the possibility of paying for private for 12 more years or moving.  How is that a decision?  I hate to stir up some sh*t bit I would bet that the people saying "don't walk away from it" or "you'd lose it" are SAHM.  Those of us that have to make business decisions and apply logic every day won't keep our jobs with logic (or lack thereof) like that. [/quote]
