    Parents want more tours?  Do they know how much it costs the school?  A ton.  I overheard a conversation and found out that our tour night is the MOST expensive night/day of school.  The budget comes out of the school’s budget so other things must be cut…like tutoring.  If the DOE takes it out of their budget, then fine.  Until then, no.
