My son Yisrael goes to Reach for the Stars, a school for children with autism. As it is not funded by the DOE, each parent has to pay a ridiculous amount for tuition and sue the DOE for reimbursement. (Public schools aren't an option for Yisrael as they don't use ABA, follow a curriculum that is too high for a nonverbal child, and aren't peanut free.) Back when Yisrael started going to RFTS 6 years ago, the tuition was $93,000, but they raised it almost every year. Last year, the tuition was $110,00 and we just managed to pay it since we had the money from the previous year. This year, the tuition is $128,000. We had to take out a loan in order to pay the tuition. The school is having a 5k/3k run in order to raise money so that hopefully the tuition won't be $152,000 next year. The 5k run is for the more serious runners while the 3k is more of a family walk/run. It's in May, so hopefully the weather will be nice. If you like to run or need something to do with your kids Sunday morning, you can have fun and do a mitzvah too! Here is the link to sign up:

When it asks where you heard about it, please click on other and type in Yisrael's family.
Thank you.
