[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]^ Agree. Why volunteer when you need the money that a job provides? Isn't this just common sense?

Not the OP, but I am in a similar situation, I can't make enough per hour to justify the expense of extra child care after school and during summers.   I have not found a job that will allow me to work only while my children are in school, and most low paying jobs are not very understanding of 10 missed days for snow or kids being sick.  My husband has a very demanding job, travels extensively so I have no help or backup, we do well financially so I am not complaining...

To the OP, I am on our PTA board, in our school, requests go through the principal for things like school supplies, yearbooks, tutoring, field trips, he approves all requests and tells us how many kids we need to pay for / sponsor.  The PTA board has no idea who is receiving financial help.  I don't know if admin, teachers and counselors have access to the info, but the feeling we get from the principal is that the recipient list is very guarded and private.[/quote]

This is why I got a job as a preschool teacher in a morning program, 9-12. I make $16 as a lead teacher, and I believe that the assistants make $10-$12/hour. I work only while my kids are at school. I have summer, winter break, spring break, holidays, and snow days off. It has been perfect. Look around for opportunities. Now is the time that schools are trying to hire for next fall. [/quote]
