[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you told them because you didn't pay the deposit for next school year? Otherwise there was no reason to tell the school anything.

Just be gracious and patient until you leave.
This is nothing.

They need to request transcripts and recommendations in order to apply out.[/quote]

Right, but were these requests just that, of the 2-3 teachers and the registrar? OP gives me the impression that she emoted all over the administration because she felt guilty for "abandoning" her legacy. I apologize, OP, if you did your best to stay under the radar. But my point is that you do not owe the current school an explanation or an announcement or any communication other than what's absolutely necessary regarding material sent for future schools to admit your child. Your context of generational attendance is a lure.

No - the OP asked for recommendations and transcript and then everyone/someone was unprofessional and spread the word - and then people started to come out of the woodwork to hound her.

OP - I think at this point - take the very very high road and say all the "right" things. Then leave.  If they ask for more donations after you leave, you might want to bring it up at that point. I'd certainly cut the donations by a lot (if you don't cut completely) - at least while the current HOS and development staff are there. Maybe increase again when they turn over.
