[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A K-8 HOS told me SSFS was expensive because they have to pay for all that land. When looking at private high schools, I did consider how much land they had and how much it might cost. [/quote] This makes zero sense. Annual upkeep cost for land can be zero (look at the natural forests and streams at Potomac). These schools are tax exempt, constituting on a lot of land doesn’t necessarily increase running expenses. [/quote] You still have to maintain your buildings and grounds and your sports fields. And servicing the debt for the building projects. Clearly they didn’t have enough revenue to meet their operating expenses. [/quote]
