[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]During the initial Zoom information session, they set the precedent that we would be asked to donate additional funds and participate in their fundraiser. I get that this is a thing, but maybe save that for down the road once I'm more committed. Right now I'm worrying about paying for my own kid and wondering what that looks like, don't tell me from the first hour I'm meeting you that I have to help donate to you so that kids whose families can't afford it can also go there. And that is indeed what they said - not anything about having great student-teacher ratios or fantastic supplies. [/quote] Gotta wonder what went down with last year’s new families during the annual fund or auction asks that someone in the administration said hey, we should get way ahead of this this year. That’s crazy.[/quote] Plus when you have to make notable sacrifices to pay full tuition (like we do), I'm not all that sympathetic about someone who can't afford it wanting me to "chip in" so their kid can go.[/quote]
