Then we are both cheap lol My ds and dd both went to the TOI Tiny Tots progran. You really can't beat the cost. At the time it was $750 a year or $75 a month. They loved it and got the socialization they needed. They still ask to go visit their old teachers. My ds went to pre K there too. Dd would have gone too but she got picked in the district lottery for UPK.



could i have the info for this program??



as long as the program isnt filled and your child is 3, you should still be able to get in. my dd is afternoons and i know her class is small in the one she goes to. You can do a search for the town recreation guide.

heres from the guide--
?IN PERSON REGISTRATION ONLY AT
THE RECREATION CENTER WHERE THE
PROGRAM IS OFFERED.?
Bohemia Recreation Center 472-7037
Cape Cod Learning Center 224-5395
Greenbelt Recreation Center 472-7040
Ronkonkoma Recreation Center 467-3308
West Islip Community Center 893-8933
REGISTRATION: Registration remains on-going until classes are full. To find out about any remaining openings for fall 2013, Please call the recreation center of your choice. Classes will start
September 9/10, 2013. Registration remains ongoing until classes are full. A copy of your child’s immunization record including the name, address and
phone number of the child’s physician is required at
the “Parent-Instructor Orientation.”

I live OOS and we pay $70 a month for a private Lutheran Pre-K 2 days a week 9-12. Next year it will be $100 a month for 3 days a week 9-12. Once in school if you are a member of the church you only pay for books. The church absorbs the cost of the rest. That is an almost $3500 saving a year! Kids can come if they and their family are members or not.

Location, location, location!

In NYC and many parts of Westchester, the prices that are being quoted here on this post are ridiculously low!

Heck, I personally know many people in LI who are paying a lot more.

yes, I agree completely. I had a feeling that the schools by me are on the high end but I guess it makes sense bc the property values are on the higher end for long island as well- either bc it costs the schools more to run the programs or they just figure the residents will pay it! I still think its a racket and prices should be more uniform but unfortunately it is what it is and for us commuting to a preschool in another area is not possible due to work/care taker situations so we basically have to suck it up , much to DH's outrage over it !

$7000 - 5 days per week - 2.5 hrs per day.

ETA: Just to better answer your post - I looked at several schools in my area and this was not the most expensive school nor the least expensive. I also think it's hard to compare programs just by price...

$5000+ for a 2-3yo program seems insane to me. What could they possibly be teaching a 2yo for that kind of money?

Love the W. Islip Community Center, not sure if that is the one you are going to or not. They are great. Both of my older children went there and look forward to sending my lo when he turns 3.
