We toured a school nearby for gifted children. It really seemed very cool in a lot of ways, but about $20k/year. Plus they organize a school ski trip in the winter, and Im sure have other costly events. I figured if we really really stretched, got some aid, etc., we could swing it. Lots of sacrifices but ds8 would probably really like it.
But, I also saw that it had a parking lot full of $50k/cars. I know this probably sounds lame, but I thought, there is no way we as a family are going to fit in at this place, unless I work 4 jobs! hope that doesnt sound class-ist.
Lastly, ds is very artistic, and really they didnt offer much more than the regular schools in this arena, so in the end I decided not to feel too guilty about not doing it.
