The school demographic is getting insanely wealthy, especially in the PK-1st years.

Maybe once a year they don't want to see cheapos like you?

this is so perfect it couldn't possibly have even come from an actual Janney parent. Bravo!

Are you saying al of the families at Janet live in 1.5 mil houses or is that the average? It’s it’s the average, shouldn’t you care about those below the average? This is sad.

Pretty much. Its about 98% in 1.2 and above. Many now in 1.5+.

Where did you pull that stat? There are many families that bought >10 years ago. There are also renters that are already stretched with their housing and can’t swing $200 to go to a school event. The snobbishness of Janney stinks.

Oh cry me a river. Stretched thin in a million dollar house??? I'm in bounds for Murch and live paycheck to paycheck as a single parent just so my son can go to a decent school. I rent a very old 2 bedroom apartment. There is no way I will ever own in that neighborhood. Anyone who can afford a house zoned for Janney isn't struggling (or at least shouldn't be). Get real.

I'm on our elementary's PTA Board and disapprove of school auctions. I understand it brings in money for the school, so I keep my mouth shut, but I do not condone the message that a public school can encourage inequalities, that if you have money, you get more school-related stuff. At our school, shadowing the Principal is auctioned off, or a lunch with the assistant Principal, etc. Tying a relationship with a special teacher or administrator with money is just wrong.

So I don't go. Don't want to see that happening live.

Yes, in the older grades. Do you have a kid in PK-2nd? the vast majority of those families bought since the housing boom and there’s a noticeable uptick in income.

My school sells pizza slices for $1 at its fundraiser..

In the younger years that is. Those classes are rich, rich, rich.

But they also expect/hope you will purchase items at the auction. So more than $200.

Really Janney?
