[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, that's the other thing, OP. Janney's population are mostly all able to give significantly to the PTA. You are never going to have that happen in Petworth. If your 30-40 gentrifier families all kick in $100, per child, every year they're at Powell, they still will not come anywhere close to the budget of the Janney PTA. [/quote] I would guess most "gentrifier" families are able/willing to give more than $100, but the point is still taken.[/quote] For most families I know in the Petworth area giving $2,000-$5000 a year would be a very doable thing. This is becoming an affluent area now and these parents would be very willing to help out their schools- even if it means that other children benefit as much as their own.[/quote]
