[quote=kaybn]You say co-op? Then it's parent-run, right? So those kinds of tuition/fundraising things are parent decisions. The most productive thing you can do it get involved in those decisions- and not feel that you are too early in the year to jump in; if all the decisions and feedback come from families that have been in the school for longer, that's not actually a good thing for exactly the reason you're talking about- it's hard to keep the perspective of a new family when you aren't one. Can you go to a board meeting or subcommittee meeting, or ask to be added to an email chain, even just to hear the discussion? They are probably setting tuition and fundraising goals for next year around this time of year- so it's the perfect time to speak up. I've been on lots of those discussions at my kids' coop, and it's always a challenge to figure out how best to balance it. Squeaky wheel gets the grease, as in most things. And squeaky wheels with good ideas are the best![/quote]
