I think you are right to be direct. It’s not pushy, you just want answers to your questions. I understand that in high school kids should be handling this for themselves but there are exceptions. For me those exceptions would be where a lot of driving needs to be done and the child can’t drive themselves. Also when they are asking the parents for a lot of money. I’m sorry, but if the school wants my money and for me to drive my kid a bunch of places, I need answers. Especially for you with a big family (I understand this completely). In order fir you to make this class fit into your family calendar, they need to be clear. I wouldn’t pay until I got my questions answered.
