Perhaps the website for the school is incomplete and only listing registration fees and not tuition but the only figure I see is $750, which is not nothing for plenty of families but is hardly what I would call expensive when it comes to private education. Am I missing something? Very well could be!

- sbelskie 4y agoAre new articles about people’s accomplishments “remiss” for not including statements about how much their parents cared about them?

- ummonk 4y agoI see tuition of several thousand (e.g. 7,800 for 8-11th grade): https://smaneworleans.com/tuition-fees https://smaneworleans.com/tuition-fees Still quite a steal as private schools go, and significantly less than one would have to pay in yearly rent / mortgage to get their kids into a good school district.
- briandear 4y agoIt’s a “steal” if you make California wages. For Louisiana, that’s a lot of money. The median home price in New Orleans is roughly $230k — in Santa Clara county, CA, it’s $1.3 million. That makes the tuition comparable to $45k per year which is more expensive that the best private schools in Silicon Valley. The math is sloppy, but the point is that the tutoring isn’t really a “steal.”
- sbelskie 4y agoAhh, the tuition was cut off on mobile and did not realize there was horizontal scroll.
