Which is better and worth its money-> Co-operative pre-school OR Private pre-school?

Question

private schools are 600$ a month for 5 days a week but individual attention and lot of cocurricular activites..

(Challenger, stratford, monticello)...

co-operative is 1 teacher, 3 parents for every 15 students..but only 130$ a month...

parent has to attend 1 in 2 weeks( Laurelhood, jubilee etc)

Answer 1

I had some of my children in a co-operative preschool! It was great! It is cheaper plus the parents all help, so the teacher is not overwhelmed and the parents know what is happening and how to take care of preschoolers even more!

Answer 2

Good grief - I think I am glad I live in a small town - we charge $95 a month for three days a week!!

I think there are advantages to both scenarios - if you can't afford the $600 and you have time available to offer to the school - go with the cooperative!
