[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are parents renting musical instruments for band or orchestra classes? Are your kids classes smaller than public schools? Do your middle schoolers pay for the overnight trips? do you pay for school supplies like families due in public schools? Does your school have a nice graduation ceremony? Are teachers given great employment benefits, and shown an abundance of appreciation? Is your campus well-maintained and the technology constantly updated? Annual Funds pay for those things and much more. Most independent schools are nonprofits which mean they can’t charge as much as they spend or they would be for-profits, like Basis or Whittle (RIP).[/quote] The answer to some of these questions is YES. Many schools have a separate fee for Books and Supplies. Trips are extra. And yes parents are supplying musical instruments.[/quote]
