[quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher at a private school that is not in the DC area. I was wondering if people could offer their opinions on this. The teachers who have grade 12 homeroom/advisory have been asked to come to school a little early to help set out a special breakfast for the senior class. In addition, today we received a Google doc with a list of ingredients and breakfast foods, as well as a place for a name to be entered beside each item. The PTA asked that teachers sign up for an item, which we are supposed to purchase and bring to school for the breakfast. This really rubs me the wrong way. I am poor, and the moms of the PTA are all relatively wealthy. I just don't see how this group of moms somehow decided that the teachers, who were being required to come set out and serve this special breakfast for the 12th graders, should be asked to spend our money on the foods for the breakfast? Am I being unreasonable about this? [/quote]
