  How much is it per month/year to send your kids to a non public school in the US?

    Generally, it is prohibitively expensive. I come from a wealthy suburb where the private schools are a bit worse than the public ones, so it worked out for myself and my siblings as our parents could not have remotely afforded to send us to private schools. So far we've all gone on to great schools and careers after high school, so it's not always such a bad thing to be in the public school system, despite the OP's blanket statement.

      My blanket statement regarding the precious waste of time children are coerced into is not limited to government schools. A little hyperbole! I went to school, and also have a job.

    $15,000-20,000 a year. They don't go to private school either. It's only marginally better option than the government schools.

      Wow. That is a lot. Here in Germany we have some private schools that are almost free because they are run by the catholic church or protestants. Other non religious private schools are at about 5000€ per year.
