[quote=Anonymous]Hi, OP here.

Thanks for all the responses. It's really food for thought.

So my son is in a NAEYC-accredited school and it's good, but having visited the private school, it has NOTHING on it. Really.  And to anyone who said that head start is as good but free, you haven't visited the head start programs. I have. I visited 7 of them because we qualified at the time.  And they are NOT ANYWHERE in the same range.

So I have one question, which is that, at the daycare where he is now, and most of the schools I can think of, they do not offer financial aid.  We are in a school that gives us some subsidy because of my job, but we couldn't move him to a different (maybe better) closer school and afford it. A lot of those schools are around $1800/month ($1600/month?).  If we get really good FA, doesn't that change the equation somewhat because it's maybe the only way to get him into as good of a program financially?

I am in no way trying to argue, but just wondering if that changes anyone's thoughts.[/quote]
