[quote=Anonymous]We are not uber rich and the tuition is more than our mortgage. I do not think my kid cares that much about the donation but I explain this way: the private school education is a luxury good and you overpay (we have very decent public schools that my kid attended till 8th grade), and donation is like tips for dining in a restaurant - it is optional but if you feel strongly not to tip (regardless of service quality) perhaps takeout or eat in is better. I also checked the annual charity report of the school, seems 80-90 percent of donation amount comes from the few big donors, so for the majority who donate it is mainly participation anyway.[/quote]
