When pasting TJ press releases, shouldn't you mention Mr. Humphreys' connection to TJ, as well as his status as your financial benefactor? After all, you thought enough to mention that the photo is from last year. Or is this an ad on what you otherwise claim is a journalistic web site? If it's an ad, then shouldn't you say so and put it on the side with the other ads?
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is one of the new students. She tested well and earned a scholarship courtesy of David and Debra Humphreys, and we qualified for some financial aid. Our average monthly payment will be just over $300. While this is substantial to our family, I just couldn't stomach sending my child to Joplin schools. Not to mention, we'll likely see a return on our investment with the college scholarships she'll no doubt earn having received an incredible education at TJ. More than 40% of students at TJ are receiving some kind of scholarship.
