Serious question. If my son is currently in 8th grade, what's the best way to reclassify him to the grade below without spending $50k/year on a prep school? Luckily I can afford it but that doesn't mean that I want to part with that money. Hoping there's a cheaper way. I'm asking on this thread because I'm sure some of you have crossed this bridge and hopefully figured it out. Thanks for sharing any insights.
Ive seen some do a "repeat" year at Buckley and then back to the public. Not sure what the bill was though.
The web is your friend. Most privates have the tuition listed on their website.
On Long Island, one can repeat 8th at the privates like Buckley, Green Vale, Friends, etc. To repeat 9th, you're looking at Friends, The Stony Brook School, The Knox School. The freight is approx. $30K
