[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The centers can't survive on $1300/month per child, if that's the rate mandated by the state. I'm familiar with the inside financial workings of one of the large providers in MoCo and trust me, every single dollar of the tuition is used to pay employees and rent.[/quote]

But, at least at some places, they claim they are still paying the teachers and presumably have to pay rent.  $1,300 is a lot more than nothing.  It’s obviously a bigger hassle than closing and there are some additional expenses from operating, but it is an interesting choice.[/quote]

But if the center would get a greater percent from parents staying closed then remaining open and getting the meager amount from the state and not assume the risk of new kids coming in which could sound an alarm for health and safety, why would they stay open? The governor made a bad decision with the restrictions and tuition.  Also Hogan did it last minute.  If a center is caught not accepting new essential worker families they will be closed down and fined.[/quote]
