+1. There is not a pre-school on the planet that is "worth" this. And one of my kids went to NCRC.

You definitely may get aid -- I can say from experience. Just apply for it and see what happens.

You should not get any aid on $250K a year. There are plenty of cheaper options that are good.

The “worth it” question is one only you can answer. Lots of families choose independent schools and find it worth it, lots of families never even consider it because it will never be worth it to them. I think you just have to go with your gut.
