This would be the equivalent to

Being accepted to Sidwell ( I guess never been to that school)
It’s free for your family ( for any number of reasons) 
And 20 min from your house.

I’m not sure I agree that it’s for the best. I’m hearing people with experience with these kinds of schools, at least tangentially, not want that for their kids. 
Is it too much? 
It has a robotics loft. Wall of 3D printers, multiple laser cutters, a mill...
A leadership ropes course on the 300+ acres of the upper school...
It’s crazy town.

We purposely picked an urban school over a college setting schools for K-12 private. If they want that, they can choose it for college. 
We found that the difference between a good public and good private were little in high school, more pronounced in elementary school. 
Class sizes and attention from teacher constantly smaller in private; small number of kids per grade an get much over time, even despite a few intakes to get from 40 to 130 per grade. [/quote]
