LOL...actually, I think the intent makes sense: give the kids who can not afford to pay a tutor the tutoring services anyway.

But, here's another problem I discovered: it's hard to mail information to parents, and students don't always give information sent home to their parents. School "clerk/typsts" have said their job is not to do a mass mailing to parents. Plus, postage costs money. So, no notices get mailed en masse.

Maybe there needs to be free mailing, lcoations outside schools like churches, and better communications with teachers about this program, because teachers are the ones who may best be able to get their students to attend these programs.

If the students really want it, they will find a way. "Free" is never free, really.
