Check your figures on the difference between private and preschool.  Unless you are in a top notch preschool that is at a private school then it should be less than your private.  Just remember that your private school's tuition does not include the summer and vs. your preschool might.  I know people who looked at the monthly rate and said that there was not a difference but they were looking at the private school annual tuition and coming up with a monthly figure.  They completely forgot about the summer program and before/after care.[/quote]

Sorry, I wasn't trying to say that private school and preschool are the same or similar prices.  It's more, probably another $13K-15K more if you include summer and aftercare at the schools we were applying to.  It's just friends of ours are making like it is a $32K+ whollop, when it really is only $13K to $15K more than what we already pay for preschool.  Squeezing out another $15K isn't that much of a hardship for us right now because we have a modest mortgage.  It won't be easy, but finding another $15K is a lot easier than finding another $32K+.  Plus, you still have to pay for summer camps and aftercare in public school.
