[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nah, won’t happen. People can donate to any school. There’s nothing stopping anyone from writing a check to Randolph or Carlin Springs. If people really cared they would already be doing it. [/quote] Bingo. This will get lots of lip service, but no real $$ traction. [/quote] Yup. The only thing this misguided Robin Hood effort will do is ensure that no PTAs receive parent donations. Parents want the money they donate to go toward supporting their child's school. What's so difficult to understand? If I was told that legally, half of the money I don't to my child's school will be sent to some other school, I'd stop donating. I'd switch to giving in-kind stuff to my children's teachers. If a struggling school wants to do a fundraiser, or my school's PTA votes to adopt a Title 1 school or something, fine, I'll give. But don't ship my money off somewhere I didn't intend without my ok. [/quote]
