[quote=Anonymous]Here are submitted DCPS budgets for FY15: http://dcps.dc.gov/DCPS/About+DCPS/Budget+and+Finance/FY15+Fiscal+Report+Card/Submitted+Budgets Janney's PTA fundraising is HUGE, and has to be the largest of any elementary school in the city by far. But for some perspective, their DCPS budget increase (not the level, the increase) for FY15 was over $600K. Relative to what even fairly wealthy upper NW schools can raise, which is big, the actual school budgets are much bigger. I know for my non-JKLM upper NW school, the PTA funds are about 3 percent of the school budget. Important? Yes. Nice to have? Sure. Doing important things? Absolutely. Difference between a great school and a good school? Maybe, but probably not.[/quote]
