[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On another note about Payne - what if Brent and Maury adopted Payne as a sister school and shared some of their generous fundraising mojo? I admit to being a little sickened by the idea of parents spending $500 each at an auction, while a school 6 blocks away doesn't get anything. [/quote] That school gets both at risk funding from DCPS and Title 1 funds. whether that's enough to meet the needs is another question altogether, but the local system and federal government provides additional funding for schools serving more impoverished communities. Except for the NW powerhouse fundraisers like Mann and Janney this exceeds what other schools raise independently.[/quote] Well I doubt that Title I money can go for extras like teaching aids and after school enrichment?[/quote]
