[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of us have kids in private school. You think it's confusing to say I can't afford tuition and childcare? With COVID-19 hybrid options some will be paying for both.[/quote]

[b]Most good private schools are providing in-person instruction.

The Avenues in Manhattan has leased an entire new campus in the Hamptons for their students to get in-person learning.[/b]

Avenues, the expensive private school based in Manhattan that was famously attended by Suri Cruise and counts the children of tycoons, rock stars, and Oscar-winners among its students, is setting up a 3,500-square-foot campus in the Hamptons to cater to children whose parents have fled the city for the salubrious comfort of their beachside homes in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The for-profit school, established in 2012 by a group of private investors, and which charges around $56,000 per annum, is reportedly seeking a space of some 3,500 square feet in East Hampton, New York, to operate as a new “studio” campus, the East Hampton Star reports. Fees for students attending the new Hamptons campus will be $48,000, less than the $56,400 charged at the Manhattan site, due partly to lack of extracurricular and sports activities. The campus is currently accepting students in fifth through 11th grades.[/quote]

This isn't an elite school. This is an expensive school for absent rich parents who want to pass their kids off on someone else and then their live in nanny picks them up and spends the night with them while parents party. It is not academically intense and of course they'll stay open because they literally serve to care for rich kids of absent parents.[/quote]
