and family insurance policies....
Actually, providing free tuition for teachers is unfair compensation. Not all teachers have the same number of children. So a teacher with 4 children in the school is getting 2x the bonus of someone with 2 in the school, and 4x the bonus of a childless teach (or one whose children have grown up).
I thought it was self understood, but the schools will pay their teachers based upon how much they are "saving" by having their children in schools for free.
Each teacher is not paid a salary reflecting how many children they're receiving free tuition for. That means that the 'price' of free tuition for teacher's children is not allocated to those actually benefiting from it, rather it's spread evenly across all teacher.
I was taking about my new idea. It's not something that happens
Is it the norm for the schools to charge $$ for kindergarten graduation fee?
A big part of the problem is also that schools are top heavy. An administrator for this an administrator for that. When I was in school you had a Principal, Asst. Principal, and Secretary and we made it through just fine
Very good op-ed on the tuition crisis.http://jstandard.com/content/item/putting_our_money_where_our_mouths_are/28821
It's such a no-brainer in my mind. Not to say that it'll be easy to implement properly, but it solves so many major issues. The tax issue is a big one IMO that it would solve, and it would also mean that you can give maaser to the scholarship organization according to all poskim (as opposed to when that money is included in tuition - which is not something universally agreed upon among the poskim).
And yet the op-ed is old and this is the first I've ever heard of it.Though this is an issue I'd champion more than improving KSMLs.
Did you ever push for this in Cleveland?
they have it in Chicago. It's called the kehila fund
