[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school rates I posted are the ones [u]that day [/u]that were posted on the school websites.  I think all had been updated for 2008-2009 except, obviously, Beauvoir's.  Of course, NONE of the rates include aftercare and I have no idea how much that costs(we dont use it).  Also, note that most of those schols have additional fees for lunch and activities and parents' assoc in excess of $1,000 which are mostly mandatory.  We just got the bill for those and my husband asked what they were and could not understand why lunch and activities were not wrapped in with the larger fee.  I laughed that he is so clueless but I do pay the bills.  The extra fees tacked on are to make the tuition look lower than it is.  My husband was curious how people on financial aid pay those fees, if financial aid covers that too.  Anyone know?  Just curious.  Also, does FA cover aftercare?[/quote]

All of these additional fees (including aftercare) are disclosed on the various websites  you just have to read carefully, as you should.  I don't understand how any parent can get a bill from one of these school and be surprised - isn't this the kind of think that you ask about at open houses and such.  BTW, aftercare at Beauvoir is $9 and hour if you are enrolled - $12 if you are using it on a drop-in basis.[/quote]
