[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes OP, community is totally worthless and in no way a meaningful part of raising children [/quote] Once more with feeling … the PTA is for the kids. You can find community volunteering for what the kids and school need. [/quote] It’s actually not just for kids. [/quote] Kids are the whole point of school. [/quote] Any strong PTA needs to get adults to volunteer and/or donate and anyone who has ever been tasked to motivate people to do either knows that you need to tap into whatever intrinsic motivation you can find. For PTA, that includes building community and making people families feel included. The kids don't donate the money and can't volunteer to do most things adults are capable of. You need to motivate the adults to do it. And the easiest way is to build community among the kids AND adults. [/quote]
