[quote=Anonymous]This is our first time sending a child to any sort of preschool, and he is signed up for a tiny co-op school with one teacher and a dozen other children. We went to the parent meeting this week and were surprised that there are already three different fundraisers organized (Little Caesar pizza kits, bike-a-thon, etc.) The expectation was obviously that we participate and hound our relatives/friends to give money. I feel very uncomfortable with this, especially since it’s a private school. It feels so tacky. I don’t want to be shunned by the other families, and we hope to send our other kids to this neighborhood preschool in coming years, but I decline participation in these things usually on principle. Why can’t they ask for more tuition to cover their budget needs?! Why the fundraising? How do you handle this?[/quote]
