[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  yes, applied to Stokes, too!

to the PP who asked why Brookland.  Brookland is awesome.  mixed family friendly neighborhood, less expensive housing with a possible return on investment down the road (moreso than already established NW neighborhoods), more green space, super easy commute to 2 workplaces.  in the end, financially we would much rather carry a lesser mortgage and have the possibility of going charter and not spending $ on private down the road than carrying a bigger mortgage that will not change for the next 30 years.[/quote]

Like so many, you're trading super awesome super easy super green funtime for certainty on the schools piece.  "Going charter" is not synonymous with "good."  Or should I say "super awesome."  Maybe for pk3 -2. Not for 6-12.

And fwiw, independent school tuition is now at the $33,000 a year mark for the top ~13 schools. A catholic parish k-8 will be much less.

Good luck to you. [/quote]

Going charters is and can be synonymous with good.  If I had my first choice, I'd prefer a school like IT or MV in conjunction with Latin than any WOTP/Wilson combo.  Different strokes.
