Troy is better on academy but is FREE.However, too many nerdy over there and
is very competitive. On the contrary, HW is more diversified and less
homework, that's why my coli's most talented kids selected the later.

Consider the prices of houses which are in good school area...You need to
pay $800K for a 3-bed house in Arcadia, South Pasadena, or San Marino, when
you can buy one about $500K in other area.
So, if it was me, would buy a nice house in bad school area but good
resident area, then use the extra $300K to send kids to private schools

that makes sense to some extend. but have you taken the long term
appreciation in account?
$300k seems to too much for private school, whose tuition (day) is around $
25k. but maybe in 10 yrs, it might just double or triple. :)
here is some ranking in terms of tuition.. http://bit.ly/9LYAWF

Many San Marino/Arcadia residents send their kids to private school 2.At
this point, it is still the affordability issue. But, some of the kids go
to the public school because they can not get the admission of private
school! (The private schools have very hard admission exam)

If they cannot get to private school, why do you bother to worry about their
school??
The people live in San Marino/Arcadia send their kids to private school 2,
because they are rich people or the top middle class...if you can only
afford one of both, so choose one...if you can afford none of both, don't
worry about it...

you don't have to send them to private top universities...just provide them
a chance to get to a better university

I knew less about private school until I noticed many of my colis send their
kids to private school (even from kindergarten) and knew a little bit
private school system' processing. (Before I just only know which school
district is good)
their school??

afford one of both, so choose one...if you can afford none of both, don't
