When couples disagree on public vs private school for their child

My husband and I have been arguing about schools for our daughter for months and we keep having the same fight — I want her in the neighborhood public school because I believe in community investment, and he wants private school because he's terrified she won't get into college. We're both right and both wrong and I don't know how to find something we can both live with.
