Description of service

We pay 500 dollars a month for my son's private school. That includes all of his books and materials. Obviously we pay extra for meals and such. We also have to buy his uniforms but there is not a particular company we have to go to, just khaki pants and white or black shirts, so that isn't any more expensive than whatever clothes we would buy him to go to the public school


Review of Service

So far he has received an excellent education. The class sizes are small, about 14 students per class on average. They are taught both spanish and french which is unusual in an elementary situation. They also have daily art classes. Somehow they manage to balance offering those types of classes and also teaching the regular classes like reading and math well. His teachers are very qualified, professional and with such small classes they are able to keep us updated and active in our child's education.


Tips

Private schools can be really expensive and getting your kid to a good school is very, very important as it will shape him or her for the rest of his or her life. Make sure you do you research. Actually go to the school to see how well it is run.
