[quote=Anonymous]Montessori costs are middle of the pack. There are several neighborhood elementary schools with higher per pupil. People who don't know and don't like Montessori like to claim it must be more expensive because of 2nd adult in upper el. Not true. There is a lot of spending Montessori doesn't do that neighborhoods do, like tech. And there are schools like Jamestown with higher costs because the teachers are more tenured and get paid more (they choose to work there, you know), and/or there are so many specialists/SPED/other services because upper class parents demand nearly 1/1 attention. South schools have been encapsulated in wrap-around services too, of course, so costs at many are high. Say what you want about pedagogues, but Costs ain't an issue. I think many would be shocked to learn just how much certain schools in APS were spending. [/quote]
