The Most Expensive High School in Washington State

It's not cheap to attend school, even on a public level. You have to pay for pens and pencils. Maybe a new backpack or sports gear as needed.

Never mind back-to-school supplies, what if you also had to pay to go to high school? Well, for many around the United States they opt to send their children to a private school in lieu of a public one. Attending a private school could have its own benefits including smaller class sizes but it also comes at a price.
