I am not sure we'll be able to continue to afford the school, and it'll be wrenching to take my kid out. I just wish I had as good a district as Nazareth to fall back on.

We decided on Moravian. It's going to be a few years until #2 goes to school, so it won't be the full $40K (at least not now).

Our thinking was that the transition from Moravian to the NASD would be easier than the other way, if for some reason we/ or our child doesn't like Moravian (absolutely no reason to believe we all won't love Moravian, as all of our interaction with them has been amazing!).

TBT, agree 100% with you. That's all we want for our kids as well!

I am sure you will love Moravian, it's a great school. I disagree with your thinking that it would be easier to go from Moravian to Nazareth than vice versa. Moravian has small classes and very supportive teachers, high expectations and students that are told (without saying so) that they are pretty darn special. The local small town high schools are each unique and great in their own way but most have classes of 25 kids and many kids with IEP's. No senior lounge, no long breaks.
