    Hasn’t the writer ever heard of AGUDATH ISRAEL OF AMERICA?

    They have been at the forfront of aid to yeshivas for 50 years.

    Yeshivas are getting Mandated Services for attendance records and other mandated services. What about school Busing. Without School busses it would bwe impossible for many kids to get to yeshiva. What about the AARTS programs.

    Millions of dollars are flowing to yeshivas.

    Granted it’s not enough. But AGUDAH is at the forefront of trying to get

    private school vouchers which has helped in a couple of states.

    Furthermore, I know it hurts, but even if the yeshiva charged full tuition at

    what it costs per child, these costs do NOT take into account the highly subsidized

    building fund that oujtside people contribute to. It does NOT take into account the lower salaries that Rebbeim are accepting because of the mitzvah. etc etc

    Want to try a new idea? Open up a PRIVATE yeshiva. NO Scholarships,

    NO Dinners, NO Fund raisers. Just pay your pro rata share. But, do YOU

    want that for your child?
