[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When does your PTA/PTO meet? How frequently? Are they attended by many working parents? Is it customary to host them at lunchtime so parents don't have to take much time off from either work nor their evening kids time? Thanks![/quote] Parent of middle and high schooler. Our monthly PTA/PTO meetings have always been in the evening. For one year our elementary school experimented alternating meetings before school and in the evenings to help working parents out. Most parents preferred evening. IME meeting attendance varied based on time of year and agenda (back to school night = always a full house), attendance tends to drop off deeper into the year and ramp up at end of year. For me, lunchtime meetings would have been a nightmare -- 45 minute to/from school-office each way plus the time at the meeting. I wouldn't have gone. [/quote]
