And there are people who are renting and are struggling. It's not just those few hundred that are making or breaking it.

It's crucial to pay attention to "those few hundred".
It's also not a chiyuv to spend 10k on royal clothing for all the kids every YT.
I could go on and on but what's the point ..

agreed.
What about all the teachers who teach full time and do not get health insurance? They cannot pay for health insurance, so their only choice is to get Medicaid. This is a huge issue for the Rabbonim to fix.

It is definitely a responsibility of the tzibur to ensure that rabbeim get a living wage.

Pay the teachers and raise tuition to a normal price.

And all the people who are barely making it but aren't teachers are going to afford higher tuition how?

I guess 12k per child per year is too low? That's what tuition in many schools is and the rabbeim still don't make a living wage

Hashem will certainly help.

That can't be answered without knowing what the average parent actually pays and how the school chooses to spend its money.

And raising tuition would help that how?

+1 I say there should be a policy, anyone getting a tuition break has to give their tzedakah money to the school and not to the flashy tzedakahs orgs.

Part of the problem is that schools (read: administrators) choose how to spend the money with very little transparency or oversight...

How about: if you get a break you still owe the rest to be paid later (at death if necessary).
