Most Expensive Day-Care in New York City

3. Horace Mann

Annual tuition: $41,150

Founded in 1878, this school is the second oldest day-care institution in New York City and has been the home to many famous alumni like Jack Kerouac and James Schlesinger. One of its most interesting features is the outdoor nature laboratory in Connecticut, where pre-schoolers can learn through direct contact with their natural environment. However, the school has lost some popularity since its dark headlines in 2012, when rumours about several instances of sexual abuse came to light.
