[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to know where your money is going that you cannot afford a good Montessori or another private placement on 240k a year. There are bigger problems here. [/quote] privates in this area are northward of 35k/year .... 240k HHI does not support that for 2 kids. [/quote] Seriously!!! Some posters are clueless or they haven’t thought through the numbers. Houses now in good districts are 750k at a minimum. Property taxes alone come close to $10k. Just the housing costs are crazy high here. Our HHI is about $200k and we couldn’t do one private comfortably. You need more funds to keep up with the extra than just being able to barely afford tuition. [/quote] If her kids are little, the Montessori in Alexandria is about 13k per year. She cuold easily afford to move to FCPS, too if she owns in Alexandria. That's what we did. [/quote]
