[quote=Anonymous]My kids have been at two elementary schools. One with a PTA and one with a PTO. They are run very differently - the PTA has to have monthly meetings and be fully transparent about planning and budget. The PTO can make its own bylaws and do whatever it wants - ours was run by a Board that met on weekday mornings and had only two meetings a year where the rest of the community was invited. The biggest difference was how they spent their money. The PTA was required to spend all money down each year - so any money raised benefited the children that year. The PTO on the other hand, could roll money over, and had essentially an almost $100K endowment. I didn't like this - I want the money I donate each year to benefit my children that year and not someone else's children in the future.[/quote]
