[quote=Anonymous]Staff and admin are stretched too thin in low income schools to manage any additional funding, even if they have good intentions. I used to help organize files trips in a low income school because teachers just wouldn’t, they had enough on their hands. And the school secretary who worked with the district to arrange the buses was lazy and played favorites so some teachers didn’t want to even start. Also some teachers flat out asked me not to apply for certain grants because of the reporting requirements that were too complicated. Later my child transferred to a school with 6% farms and parents organized so many things there. They had to fundraise too because there was no title 1 money for them. This was not in DC but I think it is universal. Funding is not the problem. [/quote]
