This week we’re pulling the curtain back on a topic that rarely gets talked about honestly, whether private school is actually affordable… even if you can technically write the check.
We’re not here to shame anyone’s choices. But if you’ve ever wondered whether that tuition bill is still worth it, or if you’ve been secretly thinking about pulling your kid out, we made this one for you. In this episode, we break down:
- Why the “$15K a year” number doesn’t tell the whole story
- The hidden (and not-so-hidden) social costs of private school
- How the new national voucher program could raise tuition, not lower it
- What the research actually says about outcomes in public vs. private school
- A side-by-side comparison of investing the money instead and what that could mean for your child’s future
We also get into the emotional toll of living on the financial edge “for the kids,” the illusion of networking your way into elite circles, and what wealthy families are doing differently that might surprise you.
Whether you’re team public, private, homeschool or just trying to figure it out, you’ll leave with better questions, clearer trade-offs, and (hopefully) a little less guilt.
