[quote=Anonymous] I'm tired of how much class time it takes EVERY DAY (morning announcements, prize delivery and hoopla, afternoon announcements)- not to mention the kick-off pep rally. I also don't like how it separates the haves from the have-nots. Last year while I volunteered in DD's class I saw how the haves (including DD) were showered with prizes and made a big deal over because they raised more money. I saw the have-nots sitting at their desks- shoulders slumped and eyes downcast because their families couldn't contribute. During the nine days of boosterthon I feel like I'm sending my child to school to be brainwashed. Yes, it does raise tons of money for the school- but I would rather write a check and have 100% of it be used by the school. And this year they have an app- which adds another level to how they're trying to infiltrate my home. UGH!!! Rant over. :? [/quote]
