[quote=Anonymous]I am a member of the PTA, in that I pay the dues,but I do not regularly attend the meetings. I think they are generically helpful meetings, but they are mainly a lot of talk, and I have a younger child at home, so too hard to arrange babysitting or husband home from work early so I can attend. I do some volunteering, I really prefer the one-shot type volunteering activity, like bring in a food dish for the staff appreciation lunch on a specific day. I think it is great that some parents do the major PTA work, but that is always going to be a smaller group of parents. It is probably worthwhile for PTA groups to organize a menu of volunteer activities and offer those out-- I think more people are willing to help with concrete, time-limited tasks. I don't want to chair the book fair, but I will commit to showing up on a tues night and staffing it for 2 hours. [/quote]
