I'm sure it's something they've discussed, so it's fair for you as a parent to inquire! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschool-tuition-and-covid-question#post-2913427 Sun, 05 Apr 2020 18:53:03 +0000 wrkbrk 2913427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’d just ask too. I would assume they are. At least our private preschool is (still paying full and they’re closed but “teaching online” - very hard for four year olds!!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschool-tuition-and-covid-question#post-2913423 Sun, 05 Apr 2020 15:18:12 +0000 peaches1038 2913423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks! Just didn’t want to come off as.. judgmental? I’m not even sure what word to use to describe it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschool-tuition-and-covid-question#post-2913422 Sun, 05 Apr 2020 15:15:00 +0000 bees_knees 2913422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with @gotkimchi: Totally valid question. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschool-tuition-and-covid-question#post-2913421 Sun, 05 Apr 2020 14:53:10 +0000 gotkimchi 2913421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would just email and ask that. It’s a fair question </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preschool-tuition-and-covid-question#post-2913420 Sun, 05 Apr 2020 14:42:18 +0000 peaches1038 2913420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS’ private preschool is still open with very limited hours and decreased staffing. We are still paying full tuition even though DS is not attending. I’m wondering if there a way that I can politely ask the director/owner if she is still paying her teachers and staff their full salary even if they aren’t working their normal hours since families are all still paying? I don’t want to be rude and are able and happy to pay, but I want to make sure that the tuition is being used to keep the staff paid. </p>
