[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I taught in a DC independent school ([b]not Big 3[/b]- but big tuition!). After my second child was born, decided to quit. My salary would barely cover daycare for a toddler and an infant. Add to that, gas, wear and tear from outer suburbs. Plus, the school I worked for, only gave “financial aid” to teachers. No guaranteed discount. Add to that, pre-k was not eleigible for financial aid. There was not guarantee your kid would get a spot in K either. Decided to send kids to Catholic k-12 in our suburb. Ended up teaching there too. They awarded 50% tuition discount after two years of employment. [/quote] It makes me cringe that a teacher uses that term...[/quote]
