There is a private high school about a 5 minute drive from our house. The annual tuition is currently $58k. Only families making less than that qualify for financial aid.i don't even want to think about what private school tuition runs these days-ours went to one that was very inexpensive as compared to most but DANG it added up what with the tuition and the fees and the uniforms and the mandatory donations....(we settled an estate for a family member whose adult kids were i think rather surprised at how much less was there than what they anticipated-i was surpised there was anything given their parents had funded private school for 5 kids k-12).
DH once suggested we should consider it for DD. I thought he’d lost his mind. I’d rather save that for college. We save much less than that for college every year. We already got a higher mortgage a few years ago, partially to get out of a problematic school system.
