  1. "Frum news sites reporting on financial crisis hitting many yeshivos" - Frum news sites don't "report" anything. They share mikva reid. They have no reporters or investigators and spread nothing but rumors. Stop falling for it.

    2. The crisis is that Covid funds are coming to an end, and the Yeshivos were spending it like crazy with no plan. Now they need to cut back, but won't and will just raise tuitions.

    3. Is this a new problem? Or were there any yeshivas that closed down because of this? Could it be that these huge fancy buildings are what is causing all this debt?

    1. But many intelligent people who told you it won't happen were criticized and ostracized. When will the public wake up and realize that the askanim do not have you in mind.

    3. I voted against Avi Schnall and depending on who his opponent is, expect to do so again. I still don’t think itis fair to complain about his failure to bring tuition relief until he has been in office for two years

  3. Not only is Agudah responsible
    But so is Torah Umesorah who made a big PR campaign to increase salaries for rebbeim but the schools only raised tuitions leaving parents stuck with footing the bill.

  5. I know some schools gave very mice raises for 2 consecutive years to their teachers ,but now that all Covid funding is gone ,it is getting really difficult to keep paying those higher salaries without some serious tuition hikes . Bear in mind that the tuitions in Lakewood are much lower than in the general Jewish world and the teaching salaries in some schools are getting closer to the outside world, so it's no longer feasible fir the tuitions to be less than half what it is out of Lakewood

    1. wrong. tuition in lakewood is not lower than brooklyn or monsey or anywhere out of town. (the only places that are higher are places like lawrence)

      Delete
    2. You are wrong. Tuition in chasidishe mosdos in NY might be low because the kehila subsidized it . But your average tuition in Flatbush or Baltimore or Chicago or Lawrence are close to 15, to 20,000. There is no way that the average tuition in Flatbush is in the 5 to 6k range

      for high school. Yes the 4 or 5 yeshivaleit get cheap tuition because the rest of the balebatim are subsidizing them . But in many lakewood yeshivishe schools , the average tuition even after the big tuition raises is still in the 5 to 6 thousand range because the vast majority pays the lower tuition and there are very few subsidizing them . These are facts .

    3. i'm not sure what you are trying to say but no one in baltimore (besides maybe one or two gevirim) is paying close to 15 for tuition. maybe yeshiva of flatbush charges that much but charedi schools in flatbush do not charge anywhere near there. there is no way the average tuition in flatbush is over 7. those are facts.

  7. Lakewood schools are expected to raise tuition again for the 2025 school year. This comes at a time of rising inflation and no end in sight. Last week, a girls elementary school announced they will be raising tuition to $11,000 for the coming year, a few thousand dollar jump from the previous year. The school sent out a letter explaining  they reviewed their books and operations, and anticipate a shortfall of approximately $2 million for next year. Therefore, tuition for the coming year for grades P-8 will be $11,000 per student they will continue to accept scholarships for those who qualify and would accept a reduced price of $9000 from parents without applying for a scholarship.
    No doubt other schools will now follow in raising the base tuition maybe in smaller increases, but this has now raised the bar significantly as any tuition under 10k will be considered "cheap" as the expectation has now been raised in Lakewood.  The days of affordable tuition are over as  Lakewood is slowly being pushed to be on par with other communities losing its  status of an affordable community that is the home of thousands of bnei torah  young couples and hard working  middle class families .

    1. Correct. Ever since a certain group decided to allow the building of a massive office building park which brought big businesses who raised the salaries of the average women by huge multiples , Lakewood teachers have rightfully demanded that they not be the fools to stay at the old yeshivashe salaries.

    2. Ah, you mean the taxpayer land that was given away to build an office park that the buildings are tax free? That the taxpayers are supposed to keep voting for incumbents becuase they are looking out for the taxpayers? That is the Lakeowod new office building park that you are talking about??

  8. We are not talking about taxpayer issues here . The comment just pointed out that lakewood is now a big business town and therefore all salaries fir women teachers have to keep up with the women working in these business
