Do you know the rationale, Rick? An aside about the attitude toward paying for education: In the wider Waldorf world, the ideal is that teachers give from a soul impulse to teach, and that parents donate what they can to support the teachers. Both sides give their gifts *as* gifts. But while some pioneer schools have actually implemented such idealistic visions, most work under a fee-for-service model, despite the difficulties such an arrangement invokes. (Teachers need to earn more, and parents need to pay less. Instead of an atmosphere of mutual giving, the stage is set for friction.) ------------------------ Yahoo!
