[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Here in the DMV (and NYC) - the high school that you attend matters.[/b]   In terms of connections and opportunities down the road for your child - it  will matter.  That is the bottom line.   Is the education better than a top public?  I don't know.

I know adult men who own and wear clothing with their high school insignia on it.   It is what it is.

So, OP, you will spend a ton of money.  Maybe it will matter for your child - maybe it won't.   At the end of the day - private school is an opportunity - what a student does with it down the road is their call.   Which is like every other opportunity in life.[/quote]

We must live in different cities.  I've seen no evidence of this, neither in my case (where I was a partner in one of the most prestigious law firms in town) nor in the case of any of my public-school educated children.  Is there some rarified place hidden somewhere in the DMV that only the Big 3 grads know about and are hiding from the rest of us?

This is the USA.  Not the UK.   :roll: [/quote]
