[quote=Anonymous]Interesting. We are economically where you are ($45-65k income), at a charter with relatively few FARMS. I haven't really seen a lot of the issues you're describing come up, but my kids are still young. It will be interesting to see if kids in upper grades have tutors, etc. Obviously our family is not taking vacations to Europe or whatever like some of the other families are, but neither are we at a school where $2,000-$10,000 donations are typical. I do see that a lot of assumptions are made about SES at our school. People just assume that you can afford whatever summer camp or class or dinner out or whatever and I have had many awkward moments over those discussions. Anyway, thanks for posting. It will be interesting to see how things go as my kids get older. [/quote]
