[quote=Anonymous]I am in Va but wanted to weigh in. My mother is visiting now and can not be believe the list of things I rattled off that I need to do for the school. Last week books for a drive and money for the class basket for the school auction. These week used clothes for soem sort of a clothing exchange and food for parent teach conference days. Next week it is toiletries. None of these things are a financial hardship but it can be hard to keep up with it all. I agree with the PP, if I were having trouble feeding my family some of these things would be impossible. My guess is they only do these things at economically diverse schools and count on folks like me and you to participate in everything. I would imagine at schools that have a high FARM percentages these requests are few and far between. I could be wrong. [/quote]
