Following best practices, Foote expects all parents/guardians will work to contribute to their child’s education. To ensure equity in the analysis of each family’s financial circumstances, the Committee will impute $25,000 to the total family income for a parent or guardian who chooses not to work. The Committee will not impute if there is a preschool age child at home, or when a parent is unable to work due to a medical condition or is caring for an ill or disabled child or parent.
