[quote=Anonymous]We are conservative Jews who want to send our kids to Jewish day school. The only non orthodox option in our area starts at 30k for kindergarten and increases progressively, up to 50k for high school. Our HHI is around 480-500k. We have two kids. I want a third, but the idea of three tuitions is incredibly stressful. I would not be sending to private school on our income - which I realize is objectively fairly high - if Jewish day school were not a priority. Summer camp is also a fortune. A lot of people at the school get financial aid, apparently even with incomes like ours, which is insane but a separate topic. How does anyone who isn’t a law partner afford to send kids to Jewish day schools? The modern orthodox schools are less expensive, but we are not aligned with this philosophy or level of observance. Socially we’d also be pariahs. Not so much looking for advice as much as I am for a dialogue on how other people manage the expense. [/quote]
