[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Paying $40,000 for a ES or MS education is pure folly to me. The ONLY way that this whole independent school thing even works is because the DMV is economically stable compared to most other parts of the country. Any type of prolongoned downturn in this area would drive students back to public school and all but a few of these schools out of business. [/quote] [/quote] I agree - this is way too much money. I went to NCS in the early 90's and my mom told me practically every day that school cost "$14,000 a year!" Have incomes really kept pace with that huge hike in tuition since then? I don't see it. In some ways I hope that something does happen and these prices come back down to earth. Does every school really need a state of the art everything? As someone said, that doesn't necessarily make a good school... it just looks fancy. I don't think that my daughter will be going to NCS - it's just not in the cards financially.[/quote]
