So after reading OC Mommy's comment--
Has anyone else seriously considered or researched private schooling in OC? Is it heresy to even say that you live in Irvine and choose NOT to go to an IUSD school?
Right now my daughter is in a Montessori pre-school and there is an option to continue that until 1st grade. She seems happy and learns well with the Montessori method, so this may be reasonable. I've also heard good things about Fairmont Private school as well.
I would welcome open discussion on this topic, pro's and con's for private schooling. I am also interested in specific comments of private schools they know about.

Many of the people I know living in Woodbury have their kids in private schools and the ones that have their kids in Public have them at Stonegate.
Another thought that I had about IUSD versus TUSD is that with the budget state crisis and Public school going downhill in general. Does IUSD have more "other funding from other groups" and over time will that make a difference. I have not researched this. Again, this goes back to wanting to make the perfect decision and no decision is perfect!
