the Cost of Preschool at a Public School

Public Preschool was a lot less expensive than a private preschool, but for the working poor it was still expensive. The cost of school supplies was $65, then school dues came throughout the year and totaled $25, school pictures were $45 and also the cost of buying appropriate clothing throughout the year totaled $265. Also, there is the cost of field trips, school lunches (even if you brown bag it), snacks had to be provided by parents, and lets not forget the cost of gas when transporting them to school!!

My daughter enjoyed preschool very much but i was not pleased with how much she learned, i feel they could have worked with her more one-on-one and been more successful. By the time the year ended, I was left wishing i had put her in a private school. I will likely enroll her in private school for Kindergarten.

Be sure to look at both public and private schools to see which one has a smaller class size. The one with the smaller class is most likely to work more one-on-one. I would recommend public school for those who cannot afford private schools, just be sure to be an active parent at the school.
