[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are about $325k HHI w 2 kids in a $20ish - k per year school. It hurts, and I'm pained by people who assume we're wealthier than we are. Having said that, this whole thread ignores wealth (not income), which is a huuuuuge deal when it comes to all of this. For us, it started with a bad DCPS experience and we just wound up a little... stuck (?) in our private. Now with middle school, it seems hard to pull away from friends and community, especially after the drama of the last two years. Did we make the right decision? I'll never know. It's probably best to make a plan for a year and reassess based on where your family and kid is at.[/quote]

If you make $325k/year, you make a lot of money. I’m sorry to inform you of that but it’s true. It may not be enough to live the high-flying lifestyle you envision, but join the frigging club. The fact that you think you “middle class” just because you can’t afford $100k/year in tuition suggests a deep delusion that’s going to damage your kids far more than anything that happens at public school.

325K is lousy…lift your goals.  [/quote]
