[quote=Anonymous]I don't care who contributes or helps out, but I am glad many of the joyless automatons in this thread aren't the ones running the school or the PTA or volunteering. A 45 minute party every 6 weeks (on average) is not going to cause an overload of homework and a dent in education. This is such a slippery slope fallacy it is unbelievable. What these events do do is give these kids a much needed mental break. School should not be a gulag for young ones, sorry.Most of the kids I know look forward to 100 day or Dr Seuss week or the holiday party or Colonial Day so that they can get a break from routine and try different activities. They need this break, and frankly, given the high stakes track of education these days, they deserve it.[/quote]
