[quote=Anonymous]Many families choose private schools and are willing to spend the money because it is the right place for their child, or maybe it's just their family tradition. My point is, if you're doing it primarily because you think it will enhance your chances of getting into the best or "right" colleges/universities, that's not always the case, and you may wonder whether spending 30-40K a year for 12 years was really worth it.[/quote] Okay...most of us are fully aware of this gamble. There are some families who are foundation builders and want their child to receive an excellent education prior to college. My hope is that my children are life-long learners. We tried DC public schools and noticed that they were yawning and disengaging. [/quote]
