[quote=Anonymous]I think there's a wide range. When I had two kids in preschool together, the cost was close to $5k a month. Brutal. Now both are in elementary school. One does four outside activities (swim lessons, karate, piano, religious school) and the other three (swim lessons, dance, religious school) and the monthly cost during the school year is about $2k. So far, far less than before. Summer camp is incredibly expensive of course, but there is a wide range. We have done the more expensive range, averaging about $5k per kid per summer, so $10k total for 10 weeks of the summer. But that's still the same or comparable to what we paid in preschool during the summer months (preschool was year-round). We don't do travel sports, or any sport requiring major time and money commitment. Also no tutoring though I suppose that could change at some point.[/quote]
