157 children

provided affordable, quality preschool.

In the Chesapeake Bay Region, sending one child to childcare costs more than earning a Bachelor’s degree from Christopher Newport College. The average infant-care cost is $18,000 annually, and preschool costs families an average of $14,000 a year. As a result, our sliding-scale tuition is critical to our families.
