[quote=Anonymous]@ our charter we wrestled with setting "affordable" pricing. It is a subjective concept-some wanted it to be $25, others $100. Venues charge for their use and have a capacity limit. Some offer a non-profit discount, but are still expensive. Additional charges such as technology, food, table coverings, lighting and alcohol vary by location. Teachers and staff attend for free, and those costs have to be offset by other income. We used tiered pricing: early bird, a regular rate and last minute rate. We had a staff person ( who regularly dealt with students in need as part of their job) contact their families to see if they were interested in attending, regardless of ability to pay. [/quote]
