After what you have listed: The high school with wonderful art and film programs; the high school where he is doing quite well academically; the high school that is free-- well, is the private prep school really going to be better than all that? All that you can have for free? Maybe I am just a bad mother or a lazy mother, but I wouldn't even entertain the idea because of the cost. Frankly, I won't even entertain costs like that for college-- they have a school here they can attend with their father's discount. It's a good enough school, and that is where they are going.
