Running the school is a losing proposition even with a heavy fee per student. Everything costs money. Personally I think we should close. If our members are not willing to support the synagogue in a way that keeps our doors open to the whole community, we ought to close. They have voted to be open, but they need to back it up with money.
Every case is different of course.
But that just keeps the doors open and pays a subsidy to the school. It doesn't pay for all the activities. I don't want to seem flip. If more Jews joined a synagogue the expense of running a synagogue could be spread over a wider base, but they don't. We used to have more women volunteers too, but now women work.
