Does He'atid High Already Exist?

I didn't realize it when I wrote my last post but apparently there is a low cost Yeshiva High School that is already in operation in New Jersey.  It's called the Pre-Collegiate Learning Center and it's in East Brunswick, NJ.

And when I say low-cost, I mean LOW COST.  $5,000 per student!!

How do they do it for $5,000 per student?  Watch the video below (but don't expect any detailed budget analysis):


Or check out their website.  Or like them on Facebook.  Or read about them in the Jewish Week.

Or attend the next parlor meeting, this coming Tuesday, December 18 in Highland Park, NJ at 7PM.  For more info or to RSVP, please contact the office at (732) 387-2693 or send an email to office@pclnj.com.

I'd like to keep this blog focused on tuition. If you want to discuss George Finklestein's wrestling fetish here's a blog about that: http://jewishsurvivors.blogspot.com/2007/01/looki...

perhaps part of yeshiva tuition costs is going to the various liabilities schools may have on the books or potential exposure related to inappropriate actions of staff members. perhaps some better due diligence in the hiring process, or quick ax with first report, will minimize a school's exposure when things do happen. It is unfortunate, but ignoring this as part of the landscape that has hit several local yeshivas lately is just not facing the facts. There has to be a price tag associated with these issues. Who is paying for this? The consumer / tuition payer.

I find the video utterly unispiring. The teachers seem unfocused and abstract at best, and the student comments fail to convey sharp, engaged thinking- in my view. However, a self-directed, video-based coursework program with expert coaches could provide a more affordable bridge between homeschooling (mostly opportunity cost of the at-home parent's time/earning potential) and the traditional full tuition juggernaut.
Thanks for posting.
