[quote=Anonymous]DH went to Phillips Exeter Academy. I went to a run of the mill public school who's senior class had 630 kids. He went to Harvard undergrad and law. I went to UVA undergrad and then Yale. We are both are partners in a law firm. We're sending our kids to public school in Fairfax County. All 3 are in AAP or were in AAP (one is in HS now). The lawyers at our firms are a mix of people sending their kids to private and public. Everyone seems happy with their choices. We can easily afford private and we could easily afford Execter but we like the neighborhood school and like that our kids go to school with their neighbors. We also like the socioeconomic and racial diversity of it, although we are white high income earners. To me, whether you choose to pay for private or choose to go public, your child will be fine. How well a child does is most influenced (not the only influence of course) by the educational values of the family they belong to. [/quote]
