Are local private schools giving a partial refund on tuition?

Just curious if that could become an issue?

I imagine not, they gotta pay teachers.

Sure, you can have a refund. You can also find a public school because that would put the private ones out of business.

You signed a contract; pay up!

All of the private schools in my area, including the one my kids go to, are doing class work online.
ETA: Therefore, I do not expect a refund of any kind

We’re not getting one, wouldn’t ask for one, and shouldn’t get one even if we did.
My kids’ teachers are absolutely killing it to the point that I can work my regular hours, from home, just about uninterrupted because they’ve put so much original content out on Google Classroom and the like that my kids actually want do the work, and they’re still giving my kids any one-on-one help they need through FaceTime. We also get daily updates and new supplemental packets delivered each week, plus Zoom-type meetings for group activities. I can’t imagine how much time it’s taking for them to adapt all their lessons for distance learning and spend so much extra effort communicating about it, but they can’t realistically be working any fewer hours. We’re not at some crazy high-dollar day school or anything either.
There are always those parents who aren’t hurting financially yet are still going to make a comment about wanting their fees prorated for just about anything, but this is one of those situations where it’s happened a lot less than usual, and you’re frankly embarrassed for them the few times it comes up.
