[quote=Anonymous]Our ES does a "promotion ceremony" when sending kids off from elementary to middle school. It's in the middle of a work day and was scheduled without any input from parents that are not on the committee. Those people on the committee that suggested moving it to the evening so more parents could attend were shot down. I specifically volunteered for the committee because I know working parents are frequently not taken into consideration for these things and are told "well no working parents volunteered" as an excuse. I volunteered and I stated my opinion (and those of other parents I know that have jobs!). My husband would love to attend but it's on a day that he has a standing meeting with his senior executives and it cannot be rescheduled. If you were in our shoes, would you try to protest once again, or just give it up and hope that you'll be able to attend more things in middle and high school?[/quote]
