[quote=Anonymous]Nope First of all, the whole point of an elementary talent show is to show off for your friends. Every single one that I’ve seen through the years has been a free, school-wide assembly held during the day. Second of all, these are elementary kids. No one (FARMS population are not) is going to think these kids are a sufficient draw that community members (outside of their families) are going to want to come see - this is not a viable fundraiser. Thirdly, parents shouldn’t have to pay to see their kids perform, and schools should encourage parent involvement with their kids, not charge them for it. Finally, I can’t imagine a talent show being a financial burden. If, for some reason, the PTA feels they need to offset production costs, they need to scale down their expectations. This shouldn’t be a Broadway production.[/quote]
