Private School in Hawaii

I recently saw a post about preschool and was surprised to learn that many of you are considering private schooling after Kinder.
I am amazed at the high tuition fees for a well-known private school ($ 20,000 ~ /year) and feel that it is not easy even if you are working together.
What are your reasons ( for wanting a private school even with such high tuition ) and why do you prefer to avoid papric schools ?
and is your family working together ?
? We have a preschooler who is still at a pre-school age, but I would like to hear from both private and public people for future reference.

I also did a lot of research on private schooling for my children, but
I realized that with our family budget, I would have to work very hard to afford it.
We moved to an area with a good reputation for public schools at least.
We found a good school with a nearly 100% college-going rate, so
my child is now a student at a university in the Mainland.
College is even more expensive, so it's not easy.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

For Kindergarten-6th grade, it is not as important to attend a private school if you can get your child into a good public school. This is not always easy though and you have to either live in a good district or get a Geographic Exception (GE). Some parents of course believe that private schools are the best and if they can afford them, its no problem. However please keep in mind that tuition is only one cost. You also have to factor in books, after school care, extracurricular activities, summer school, etc. Extracurricular activities start off cheaper when children are small because the lessons are usually once a week for a shorter time. By the time they reach middle school, these activities can be adding thousands of dollars every year. Some parents feel that private schools are more important at the high school age, BUT do not want to take a chance so they apply their child at a young age and get in when the application process is easier (no SSAT entrance exam tests). Ultimately, you should really look at the finances, if you are going to be struggling to keep up, it is definitely not worth it. There are many good public schools and if your child is smart, they can succeed anywhere. Better to spend time with them when they are young than to work many hours and let someone else (private school) raise them. There is no denying that many good private schools offer a good network and environment, but not at the cost of you and your partner struggling. 50% of marriages in the US end in divorce and the largest cause of divorces are financial struggles.

When my children were still small (around 2 or 3 years old)
the topic of conversation among my mom's friends was private or public school. It was.
We were both working at home, but private school was never an option.
We were able to at least enroll him in a public school with a good reputation in GE.
In exchange for private tuition, we were able to give her a variety of lessons.
Fortunately, I was able to enroll him in a school with a high percentage of students going on to higher education and he is attending a university in the Mainland, including scholarships, after receiving recognition in his field of study.
As Hawaii Five-O said, even more universities are expensive and difficult, though.I worry a lot about my children's future and school. I think it would be good to hear about the experiences of different people to help you 😊. This text has been translated by auto-translation.
