Thank you for the explanation.
This system was not used in any of the institutions our children or grandchildren attended/attend.
#1 it is none of the classroom teacher’s business to know which children have parents who owed money
#2 at the end of the school year, the scholarship committee and the administrator would have a meeting and go over the amounts still owing (without names revealed). If there was enough funds in the scholarship savings account, money would be transferred to the operating budget to clear all balances.
#3 The HEAVY HITTERS would be asked to cover the debt, so every family started the year fresh after summer break.
It’s different ins small communities OOT. Lots of non-frum Jews support the yeshivas/day schools along with all the other Jewish institutions in town.
