Most private elementary cost under $10,000. $3000 - $6500 should be a fair price for one year of tuition. BUT it really depend what school are you going send your child to.

like you went to high school in a different country and now ur going to one in the US? if that's the case then your credits should transfer if you have your transcript
2 :
How old are you? Where in the US are you living? If you are under age 21, you can usually enroll in a US public high school. Go to the office, and sign up. They will ask for your foreign high school transcripts. If those are not available, you can still enroll. They will ask for proof that you have received your immunizations. If you don't have that, talk to them anyway, and they can tell you how to get it. If you are over age 21, you will need to get your GED - that's a test you take, and it acts as a high school equivalency. The adult education department in your town, or your local community college, offer GED preparation classes, which are free or very inexpensive. Contact them. In some cities, such as NYC, the city runs adult high school programs. Many, many immigrants to the US enroll in these adult high school programs. If you live in a major US city, find out if an adult high school program exists there, and enroll.

Well you can apply for student aid but I dont know what the qualifications for award are if you are not a citizen of this country. You can check the link that I've included below, to find out more. If you are awarded a grant, or a loan, it "usually" is enough for the tuition and MOST of the books at a community college. Good luck!
2 :
It depends if you are speaking about university or anything before University. Anything before University would be free. No fees, so additional charges, etc. University is a completely different story. Public colleges usually have in-state and out-of-state rates which vary greatly depending upon the state, etc. There is usually a residency requirement that you've lived in the state for a certain period of time in order to qualify for in-state rates (usually a year or more). You can't go to university without paying tuition, even if it is in-state. It could range from ~$1000 per semester to several thousand per semester. There are scholarships, grants and loans to help pay for things, some of which have to be repaid. Good luck!

it's best to go to spain. because it can be tricky with schools that are overseas because i have heard of cases where american workplaces or schools do not accept some colleges/university credit from some countries. so to be safe go to spain and study since you are already planning to work there for at least 20 years. it's better to be safe than sorry. plus you'll be more familiar with the way things work over there, because in america they might have different standards or procedures or expectations. plus since it is significantly cheaper. it's probably best. but make sure that you are familiar with spain though. maybe know a few words here or there, know the popular ways of commute, what they eat, etc.

I have friends from Europe who has degree in medical field and seeking permanent residency in US, our Goverment is not completely recognized European medical degree, they have to take a few courses (2 years) in US before thay get certify. I would suggest you should continue you education in Spain.
