[quote=Anonymous]What? Of course the PTO can charge for events. No one is forcing anyone to come to the events. How do you propose they raise money, plan a budget, etc? I worked at a Title 1 school for 20 years. The FARMS rate was 75%. The PTA sponsored a variety of community events. Some had an entrance fee and some were free. BINGO Night was free to get in, but each game booklet was $5. Earth Day was free, but there was a charge for food. Multicultural Night was free to get in, but you paid for a plate and water bottle. I would strongly recommend NOT making everyone give a donation for each event. [/quote]
