[quote=Anonymous]I think most PTAs in diverse schools have a demographic problem - just because middle class white families tend to have more time and energy to attend meetings at night, where there may or may not be snacks, and where the discussion is in English. HOWEVER - what's happening at RT seems to go beyond these challenges. It sounds like the immersion parents have basically taken over the PTA and use it to advocate for the needs of their own kids at the expense of the rest of the student population. I've also heard that the administration at that school has been completely beaten down by the white parents in the immersion program. [/quote]
