Improvement Fees - For a Kindergarten That Did Not Function Properly
Question
Hello, I wanted to ask if there is an obligation to pay improvement fees to a kindergarten from a halachic perspective. Because I know there is a compulsory education law, and I always pay, but this year the kindergarten was terrible, broken equipment/no equipment. Creativity at the lowest level, lack of functioning, and I don't feel the need to pay. Is this correct from a halachic perspective?
Answer
Hello,
Improvement fees are mandatory.
If you believe there is a reason not to pay, you need to take them to court.
Only with the approval of a judge can you be exempt from the payment.
