[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people want to move to an area with better public schools, even though they have to pay more for a similar house?  The reason is that the education, on average, is much better in the better school:  peers, on average, are better; teachers, on average, are better; facilities, on average, are better; course offerings, on average, are better.  The expected education outcome is better.  Otherwise, why would invest in schools at all?  [/quote]

Exactly! You also have some families who value different grades. I have two kids at top elementary school in DC, I plan to go private for middle/High. You have some people that do private for elementary and middle, public for High. [/quote]

Good luck. Do you know this is easier said than done? At our top (JKLM) DCPS elementary last year, at least 12 kids applied to the top privates at 6th and one got in.  ONE.  It's not like you can just "go private for middle school" unless you go several tiers down for private.

Your "tiers" are imaginary. They truly are.[/quote]
