[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11 pages of fuss because aftercare at wotp schools funnels through the pta. Get rid of aftercare and little is left.  Y'all should direct your energy toward places that could make a difference. [/quote]

So Janney's aftercare costs $1.4M annually. Got it. That's quite a program. Nothing else to see here! [/quote]

The reality is that after controlling for aftercare and other classrs that the pta handles for parents, Janney raises $250-300K per year.

But a headline saying something like "Janney is the 1,045th wealthiest PTA ib the US" wouldn't attract any attention.[/quote]

+1.  DCPS has to be wishing this story goes away. And fast. The last thing they want is a TRUE accounting of how much per pupil is spent at struggling schools.  Not just direct DCPS and federal funding.  But also subsidized before care/after car, reduced meals, foundation money, etc.  At the end of the day 2 or 3 times per pupil probably gets spent at EOTP schools vs. WOTP.  The CAP study was myopic and leading and the Post reporting was thin at best and lazy at worst. [/quote]

and how much does DC subsidize education and after care for kids who really live in MD??!![/quote]
