[quote=Anonymous]I work in independent schools and the rising costs are going to shut us down. It's unrealistic to think that we can continue to raise the prices, year after year, and NOT have it squeeze everyone... remember tuition doesn't even cover the full cost of the entire program, so you have to give ON TOP of that. Everyone is always wondering about the "Big 3" in DC - and every one of them (whether it's STA, NCS, Maret, GDS, Sidwell) will hit $50K before too long. These schools (and I work for one) are in an arms race...nicer gyms, nicer science labs, etc... and it's madness. Because the teachers are NOT getting huge raises year after year...we get minimal raises, just like the average parents out there. And I wouldn't blame Bryan G. for this one...I'd blame the BOARD at every one of these schools...getting greedier every tuition increase along the way.[/quote]
