I pay close to 10k to send my son to daycare. Didn't realize how affordable private school was.
I know with my daughter, I was able to write off her catholic school tuition at that age as a child care.

Your degree is in elementary education. What are you going to do when she hits high school?
She can attend Private High School if she chooses to and carpool until she is old enough to drive. She will already have friends and cousins who attend there.
She can do an accredited HS program or do college correspondence course in high school as I did. It's really up to her and she has many options.
She could also attend boarding school if she finds one that she likes.

So you aren't homeschooling the kid, you are creating an entire school just for them? That'll be totally normal.
Actually, I had been working on creating a small preschool program/high quality "playcare" anyway. Our area is in need of a good preschool program and elementary school. I was already in the planning process when our little surprise girl came along.
Our social circles and extended family members have many young children and have been looking for such a solution and I have the degree to make it a reality. Other adults will be involved but because of my experience ( I also was a director of large dayscare) I am familiar with the process of running a state approved daycare and private school.

The youngest kid is the crown prince? That's a strange monarchy you have there.
In all seriousness, I think home schooling is fine, just as long as the kids have social activities too.
The youngest carries the family name and is being raised on the family land that has been in the family for years. This is her home. The other grand-kids live elsewhere and will likely not want to live here and work the land and property. The other grand-kids are equally welcome to build a home here if they so choose. They will also get in inheritance equal to hers and land here if they want it.
A bit of a strange monarchy indeed but the emphasis is on keeping the land together. The land is not to be sold to the general public but is sold back into the family and has been this way for generations.
Thanks for the positive input on homeschool. People need to realize that the new homeschooling is not the one of the past where it was a bunch of socially inept kids whose parents are trying to control them, isolate them and to teach them only what the parents thought was inline with their radical views.

St Cecilia is more than the Cathedral, Fatima, or Pius?
Tuition is $5082 for Pre K. It goes down to about $4800 for K, and about 4500-4600 for 1-8. Class size is 16 for PreK. Not too mention it is about a mile from my house so convenience plays a factor.
I also like that St. Cecilia refuses to expand into a huge school, even though they have a waiting list for miles because of them being the only Catholic school option for South Lafayette. I don't mind paying a little more for convenience and smaller school. But without verifying the other schools tuitions, I am suprised if SCS is actually more expensive.

I don't know why someone would down vote my previous post, catholic school tuition is approved child care for preK. You can get 6K for the school year.
That is why tuition payment is semester based, one school year would fall into two tax years.

I checked after that post and I was wrong, St Cecilia is cheaper. I never paid attention to what I pay and thought it was much less than what it actually is

You're not paying all of that cash (just) to memorize the Apostle's Creed and/or know the correct fork to use at dinner parties.
they pay all that cash so little timmy can join a frat at LSU
Good friend of mine teaches at Jesuit.
PhD historian, Teaches college course also, teaches naval officers in the Naval Post-graduate school. Very accomplished man for teaching in a High School.
You typically don't find that in most high schools.
BTW: I'm a Brother Martin graduate, so I don't usually talk up Jesuit too much.

Same here. I actually hate this thread and wish it had not been posted.

Say you are going to a casual diner for dinner in a nearby city. Would you rather utilize the cheapest form of transportation available to arrive there and have plenty of money to spend on your meal, or would you opt to spend an exceptional amount of money on some premium method of transportation or a luxury vehicle, only to arrive at the same diner but with less money in your pocket?
I'll bite.
I'd use suitable transportation with the greatest chance of arrival in comfort and safety. Now comfort and safety are relative terms and each person would gage that metric differently. I guess you could say, "in a style that I'm accustomed to". I guess some people are accustomed to private education verses the public education afforded in their area (particularly in NOLA).
If you have never run across the Jesuit mafia in NOLA, you just wouldn't understand why the education becomes affordable, long-term.

Some of those places are ridiculous, and Jeez (no pun intended), the fees. Fee for this, fee for that, for for the other.
They'd probably let you crack one of them nuns for the right fee.

I graduated from St Martin's in 1986 as tuition was around $5000 / yr. ; my parents recv'd financial assistance and paid around $3000
Fall 1986 my tuition at LSU was $650
I currently have a Sr. at Comeaux and a Fr. at Westminster .... opposite ends of the spectrum

The only day your friend didn't teach us anything was the day Obama got elected. He just said "gentlemen, we're all fricked" and then he went to sleep on his desk

How much do teachers make at these schools? With these tuition prices it seems they should be pulling in close to 6 figures.

They earn less than public school teachers. But, they do live to tell about their day.
