[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of children at my kids' school are from World Bank families. World Bank pays their tuition. As for our family, both DH and I work at well-paying jobs and didn't buy a fancy house and don't drive fancy cars. We often fantasize about the house and lifestyle we could have if we weren't shelling out nearly $100,000 a year after taxes for private. But after having one kid in public school this past spring, we quickly realized how worth it private school is. There was a vast difference in distance learning between our younger child's private and older child's MCPS school.[/quote] This is only true for people hired at the World Bank before 1998. Most of those people don't have school aged kids any more or, at best, have high school aged kids. People hired after 1998 don't get tuition allowance. IMF still provides a tuition subsidy, however.
