If the public schools aren't the greatest, but you aren't spending a mint on the house, you always have the option of private or parochial schools. The ~$14k less a year I spend on RE taxes than the house OP is contemplating would pay for an AWFULLY elite private school.
According to this site:

The average day student tuition at boarding (private) schools was $19,866. Religious schools might be a bit cheaper.
