My advice to you would be to first determine if and where your husband will do his PhD, what his stipend will be, where you could afford to live on that stipend, and what the public schools in that area are like.

Thanks for this @thumper1
We’ve always done private schools from elementary here in the UK for a number of reasons.
However, the fees in the UK are chump change compared to the US but it’s the only way to go for us for now, so we’re preparing for it.

While I agree with the general advice that the first step is exploring public schools, the family has said that the are aware that the tuition expense in the US is much hi go er than the UK, but they have always been a private school family and want to continue that tradition. I think financial aid is really unlikely though so the family needs to understand that they will likely be on the hook for the full amount at almost any independent day school and all but a handful of boarding schools in the US.
