“they charge every family like 500$ extra to fund the security”
Ok, so picture this scene:
Letter comes home from school, “due to increase security concerns, please remit $500 to pay for armed guards. Oh, and while you’re at it, please send in the $4000 balance due on your outstanding tuition”
And what about the staff with whom the yeshiva is 4-6 months behind on payroll? Do they get paid ahead of the guards?
Like I said, maybe in the private sector sub-set of Bklyn, but area wide?
Forget it. I mean, many people don’t even have adequate life insurance to protect their family in the event of an unexpected uh oh. You expect them to shell out $500 for something like security?
