[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there any reasonably priced schools in the suburbs other than parish schools?[/quote] We send our kid to Friends Community School in College Park, MD. Tuition ranges from $18,700 (K) to $20,740 (8). We have one kid, make about $300,000, and feel we get good value for the money.[/quote] Are you going to send your child to a private high school?[/quote] We don't know yet. Our daughter's still very young. We'll know better what might be the best high school option for her once we see what sort of student she develops into. Also, I expect she'll have a big say in where she goes next. One of the benefits of a K-8 school is having the student play a much greater role in making these sort of decisions. Even though we're years away from outplacement ourselves, there seems to be a lot of thought and care put into finding the best fit for each student. There's Eleanor Roosevelt High School nearby (a public science, math, tech, and engineering magnet), which is an option if we go public, but, given the things we value about the educational experience she's having at her private school, I suspect we're likely to continue with private. We might even move, depending on how things play out.[/quote]
