[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's mostly to save on PTA fees and not have the weird requirements that PTA has. It's just easier, and when you have largely nonparticipating parents, easier and cheaper is best. [/quote] Having been in multiple schools in the county, I've found the ones with PTAs at the elementary level have more participation because the focus of the PTA is on providing resources to the school, teachers, parents, and students as opposed to PTOs which just want to raise money for the school and don't do much for the students and families.[/quote]
