[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]77 kids over the next 10 years?  Hardly anything to get your panties in a bunch over people.[/quote]

Agree. But the very low class sizes were a differentiator and source of pride for many enrolled (and prospective) families. Not surprised this shift is sparking discussion and probably some snark here from those who are jealous or thought it was not sustainable. [/quote]

Agree, but going from 17 to 18 in ECE and going from 18 to 20 is really not much to get dramatic about (to pay for all the things CMI says they do).

I see people snark at MV when they expanded, they snarked at YY when they raised prices to pay for all their aftercare and now they snark at CMI.

I tell you what, pay charter schools equal per student funding and then we won't have to go through this every third/fourth year when a school finds its perm location.

Or is it just me having lived through this for 20 years of charter schools?[/quote]

Maybe CM should raise aftercare prices instead.  YY has 16 kids in ECE and 18 kids per classroom in k-5.[/quote]

Our aftercare is already extraordinarily expensive.[/quote]

How much does it cost? I never got that answer at the open house?  Althouh anythign is cheaper than the current 1900/month I pay my nanny.[/quote]

It is on the website http://www.creativemindspcs.org/After%20School%20Registration%20Form%20Updated%20October%202015.docx[/quote]

thanks! That still seems like a steal to me.  Aren't people used to paying like 5 times that much for all day child care. I don't know why folks complain about $360 a month when that barely coverss a week of child care in DC.  [/quote]

Just because people budget for daycare for a few
Years doesn't mean they have an extra $350-400 to spend for another 10+ years.[/quote]

but if they lived in MD or VA they would be on the hook for two extra years of full time childcare so probably another 20k at least for those additional two years, so overall still a bargain in DC.[/quote]
