I ran into something VERY similar, as I have a 10 yr old and was attending a half decent elementary but had not choices for middle and H.S. so I picked up and moved to El Segundo and I kick myself in the year for NOT doing it sooner.
I have made sacrifices in my life including my career but it is all coming to a complete circle which we are now in an even better place than we had been for the last 5yrs!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the fact my son can walk, bike or scooter to school and knowing the neighbors are looking out for one another!
I am a Midwest transplant and this area is giving my son a the ability to be a child as I had.
Best of luck to you and your choices you make in life!
God Bless!
