[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.  I just wanted to address the aspect that the provider was chosen with the families' economic situation in mind.  I can completely understand that, and $100 is not chump change to me either.  Bar-T is just what I know a lot of the very high SES schools have, so to me it seems like the gold standard so to speak.  I would have expected a much bigger price difference.  Kidsco looks like it's only $40 a month more than ours.  It all makes sense that the lower cost provider would be chosen for a school with more families in need, but it's also disappointing for there to be such a discrepancy in quality.  Here ya go, poorer kids.  Bottom of the barrel.

I did hear that there were steps being taken to "improve" the quality last year and the year before, which is why I've been surprised that it still seemed so chaotic.  What was it like BEFORE we put our kids there??[/quote]

Bar-T used to have a fairly standard rate at most schools and but also a lower rate at other schools based on it being Focus/Title 1. Rosemont ES in Gaithersburg comes to mind. (Friends of mine were there when Bar-T was the provider. And they were THRILLED with the lower rate!)
