[quote=Aimee4]Out of a $5 fee: $1.75 goes to the National PTA $.75 goes to the Virginia PTA for general & administrative costs $2.50 stays with the school. So tell me, why would I join if 50% of the fee goes elsewhere? Also, I did volunteer, but was "fired" because I questioned the resources of the room being able to handle 2 autistic children. One was still in pull-ups, and hit and bit other children repeatedly, to the point the teacher told the other students to teach him a lesson and hit him back. He also had the language skills of a 2 year old, but somehow the administration backed the parents demands that he be mainstreamed. I point blank told the adminstration they needed an aide in the room to handle this situation, and for that, I was "fired" for not representing the school in a positive light. So much for volunteering at that school.[/quote]
