[quote=Anonymous]I really don't see how this is possible on an income of $220k. Also, the advice that if you can't agree, you do private was backwards, obviously. If you can't agree, you do the free option that doesn't put you in the red. I'm another poster with a high HHI ($750k) and we are public all the way. I would do private if I had a child with a special need that wasn't being accommodated, but not just because I'm afraid of the public schools. Usually our biases about things like that are based on little more than hearsay. I thought the local middle school couldn't be good because it's not accredited. Well, it's not accredited because one of the feeder schools is very high poverty. But it's an amazing school with enthusiastic teachers, school spirit, etc. If I had gone on gossip and test scores I would have missed something really special. And now we have more money for travel, extracurriculars, etc.[/quote]
