Reply to comment by princessnegrita in Public Schools Are NYC’s Main Youth Mental Health System. Where Kids Land Often Depends on What Their Parents Can Pay. by LittleWind_

Appreciate the engagement. I will try to dig into this later. But what is your source for the amount raised by the PTAs? Can you link it?

The only source there is: the 2019 Treyger collection. I wish they committed to collecting this info but it looks like the effort died after that first try.

BUT I picked Sherman because their number seems high but not clearly wrong like the ones that were $10k+ raised per kid. The fact that they have at least 3 professional fundraisers in their Parents Association as well as multiple named yearly fundraising events, lends credence to the accuracy (in my opinion).
