[quote=Anonymous]I wonder if the bubble is going to pop one day. School tuition at our school has been raised by at least 4.25% a year, not counting Annual Fund, Construction Assessment (compulsory), Galas and other fundraising efforts. Each kid has to pay at least $3,000 extra dollars a year to fund FA (13% of the student body). However, there is not enough diversity. An important part of the money goes to pay for staff kids and families that know how to game the system. There is also a lot of waste on administrative issues. The Advancement Office has at least three people working there: the money they collect probably does not even cover their salaries. In addition, in recent years, many administrative employees have gotten assistants. Unfortunately, the school does not seem to care. At the end of the day they have four or five kids waiting to take the place of those wanting to leave. [/quote]
