Agree!!
This is why Aish Hatorah is supported by the wider Jewish community. They accept people in with the knowledge that they won’t see a penny fortheir education, BUT when the graduates make money, Aish is at the top of their list, both for their education and to ensure that future Aish students will be treated the same way that they were.
Schools who are mentchlich with parents and students reap the benefits in the long run. The schools who pressure and extort as much as possible win in the short term, but once the family isn’t FORCED to pay, they’ll never see another red cent.
Your question therefore runs deeper:
IF A SCHOOL IS SO DISRESPECTED IN THE COMMUNITY THAT THEY CAN’T RAISE THE REQUISITE FUNDS TO ENABLE ALL CHILDREN WHO NEED FINANCIAL ASISTANCE TO ATTEND IS SUCH A SCHOOL SERVING A PURPOSE, OR IS IT NEEDED FOR THE PRINCIPAL’S EGO?
