Mainly because I don't have any plans to have kids, but I'm also not the sort to take that kind of risk. I'd rather supplement a bad school with good resources at home and plenty of guidance.

I didn't think about that stuff until I had kids myself, so it is not that surprising, given your position, that you haven't thought of that.
