[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP, I'm the poster from BES who told you directories were freely handed out. I have just now received an email from the beptanet yahoo group saying this year directories would be available only if we joined the PTA! Ridiculous. I will ask if we can go back to the old way. [/quote] This is OP again. Thanks for bringing this up on the listserv, but the discussion there rivals DCUM and it's not anonymous! I think part of the problem is that there is a perception that either you "can't afford" $40 and you're FARMs or you can afford it. What about federal workers who are afraid the govt will shut down? Have gone without a payraise for 3 years? Or those who were laid off and accumulated credit card debt? Why should a "free" public school charge $40 for this? And frankly if it's divisive, why not do away with it? When I was a kid, my friends gave me their phone numbers and I called up! [/quote]
