[quote=Anonymous]OP, I went to a big three starting at seventh and a neighborhood DCPS thru sixth. I am SO glad I got to go to public school thru sixth. Everyone posting is ignoring that there are real benefits to going to a public school vs being in private since birth. My public school was socioeconomically diverse. Ranged from poor immigrant kids to ambasaador kids to middle class African Americans to wealthy white kids to senators' kids etc. So so glad I did not spend my entire childhood in the bubble that is private school. You have plenty of money to throw at this situation. If you're happy where you are, stay there till you have to move. Worst case scenario, pick up at move to Takoma Park or Bethesda at middle school and re-apply to privates. if you don't like it. I do recommend private for high school. I think my high school education was superior to the MCPS high school education my first kid got. We sent the second to private (with apologies to the first).[/quote]
