Concerned About Jewish Day School Tuition Costs

Hi all,

I'm wondering if those with experience as parents/administrators in the Jewish day school world can chime in. I am an alumnus of Jewish day school (a Solomon Schechter) through 8th grade and loved my education there, and I want to be able to offer that for my future children. I am far from having kids (presumably need to get married first!) but BH hope to have them, and I am finding myself getting very worried about being able to send these future little ones to Jewish day school due to cost of tuition.

I'm wondering if anyone out there can quell my fears and tell me about your experiences with schools offering financial aid, etc. I unfortunately don't have a high paying job - I do fine, but I'm not a lawyer or doctor - and idk, this has just been really stressing me out. I would like to stay in the NYC metropolitan area, assuming my work (or future wife's work BH) does not move us elsewhere.

Thanks!!
