[quote=Anonymous]I lost my job within the past week as part of highly unexpected lay-offs at my former company. I've been given about 2 months severance and am aggressively looking for a new position. We have one high school child at school and have a second due to start in the fall (also for high school). We receive about 5% aid (new for us upon adding child #2). Would you ask for additional aid? I recognize that the school likely does not have more aid to give. My salary pays just shy of the two tuitions-we are not huge earners . Our public option is lousy (and we're locked into the private contracts). I'm confident that I'll get a new position but of course I can't predict when. I'm doing everything in my power to make this work. Would you contact the school and when? Would you mention the severance? UGH. [/quote]
