Five Minute Finance

Private Schools


Listen Later

While college tuition is a common financial planning line item amongst my clients, I also find myself having more and more conversations about private elementary and secondary education. Tune in this week as Matt Robison and I discuss what goes into choosing a private school vs public education. Spoiler alert: it’s not just a budget analysis!

Public vs. Private 

  1. Location: Where you live is likely a deciding factor when choosing whether public or private schools are the right choice for your family
  2. Location: How far are you willing to drive?
  3. Location: How will your choice affect the relationships you’ve built in your community?

Funding Considerations

  1. Where will the tuition money come from?
  2. Should you use a 529 for early education?

Maybe your child needs more than the public school has to offer in the form of greater challenges or additional resources. Perhaps social and emotional factors weigh in on your decision to choose private over public schools. There are so many factors to consider and Matt and I understand that first-hand. Listen Up to hear more.
