[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our charter has free K, participates in Farms, complies with special needs, pulls out for gifted (but that may be weak...we'll see) and offers reasonable before/after care and busing. It's way different than private. We also don't seem to have many franchise programs. [b]Are those at school?[/b] Our school is super strict about who can be at the school. Not girl scouts. [/quote] We have a local taekwondo club that comes in 2x per week (sorry, I was wrong, it's $80 per month for 2x per week), a gymnastics program that's city wide and travels to different schools in the area comes 2x per week, and a franchised Lego program, a franchised science program, and a private chess program each that come in 1x per week. Our after school "babysitting" program is $6-7 hour, they just raised the rates and I can't remember exactly which it is. So, plenty of after school programs to help parents, but they are all pricey options. Our school doesn't sponsor, but will allow, girl scout troops and cub scout dens to meet on school grounds. Our school is super strict about who can be at the school too - I think it's a prerequisite to be costly and elite. ;)[/quote]
