Why did we move to an on-line newsletter?
The cost of
reproducing and mailing the monthly newsletter is as
follows:
Mailing costs
average $400.00+ each month.
Reproduction
costs:
-
Approximately 13 cases of paper @ $18.44/case = $239.20
-
Printing
costs: 64,000 pages @ $.02/page = $1280.00
-
Copy
Center Clerk Time: 9 hours @ $17.00+ = $153.00
The total
cost to mail the newsletter every month is $2072.20
(This does not
include the time Mr. Kew's secretary puts in to type and get
the newsletter print ready.)
Multiply this
amount by 9 issues and the entire cost is $18,649.80.
The Parent Group, Mission Possible, pays for the mailing
costs, approximately $3,600.00. The remaining cost of
$15,049.80 comes out of the school’s budget. Mission
simply cannot afford to continue absorbing this cost on a
yearly basis. |
