If we continue living abroad, then, private school, just because all international schools are private. We choose international schools because we want our kids to go through the American school curriculum. In case we do decide to move back to the States, it will be an easier adjustment.

there is absolutely no way, even with very tight budgeting, that we could ever be bale to afford sending our kids to private school. It's public all the way for us, although as part of public, we have the option for French Immersion, that only a small proportion of people choose. so its like choosing private!

Without a doubt public school. We live in a great school district and I have a background in education so I'll also be very hands-on at home, which I feel like it extremely important no matter what kind of school your child goes to.

I went to private school starting in 7th grade because the public school district we lived in was terrible.
That said, I hope to purposefully buy a home in a strong school district so that my kids can attend public school. IMO there is no reason to pay the extra money for private school tuition if you don't have too. We would only do so if our kids couldn't be challenged by the public school.

We're leaning towards private school starting in kindergarten/Montessori. Both of us went to private school and we both like the aspects of it.

I am torn by this. I was born and raised Catholic - though I do not practice anymore. I do believe in God, but that's another conversation. Anyways, I have no idea what public schools are like because I spent my entire school years in a Catholic setting. I always enjoyed being there and felt that it was a very close-knit family type of place.
In the end, I'll want the best for my children. I think it'll depend on our income, school districts, etc.

I went to mainly private schools, although I also went to public school briefly.. I think it all depends on what we can afford. We were looking at the cost of private school and its a lot in some areas. Having lived in europe for a while I dont like seeing kids going to school wearing "regular" clothes, I really like my kids to go to s chool that wears uniform and has less children in each class. but our finances will make the final call

Both my husband and I were homeschooled, so we plan to homeschool our kids. Of course, some kids' personalities just aren't suited to homeschooling, so we're flexible about what age they transfer to public/private school.

DH and I went to public school, and if we live in a good district, that will be the plan. If we stay where we are right now, we will probably send them to Catholic school.

We live in a big city where the main public school system is not very good. The "still close to the city" suburb district is fabulous but the property taxes there cost as much as private....so our options are either (a) good district + public or (b) in city + private. We may start with option b and move after elementary school. My husband is a big believer in public highschool.

I went to privat Catholic school until 9th grade then to public school. Husband only went to public school. I plan on sending our kids to private Catholic school at least for the elementary years. Then I will determine how they are doing. If they need extra attention I will keep them in private school.
-
Unless I decide to homeschool, our children will probably go to public school.
-
As long as we move to a smaller community (which is our plan) our kids will go to Public school. If we for some reason get stuck living in our current location, we will probably sent them to Private Christian school for a smaller atmosphere.
-
My husband and I are both public school taught and I don't have anything against public school. So, our kids will be going to public school. Unless, we find out the school district we live in is bad. I'm pretty sure that when our kids get close to that age that we will either move or look into private school.

DH went public schools all they way, I went to a private from K-8th and then public for HS. Although it was a hard transition for me when I went to a public High school after being at a small private school and saying good bye to all my friends, I am happy I was able to experience both. However with prices the way they are now, unfortunatly I do not think we would be able to afford sending our kids to a private school even though I personally would love to and prefer to.
