[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a Janney parent, I don't think there's a ton of transparency on what is PTA-paid for vs. DCPS-paid for.  I say this as someone who doesn't go to PTA meetings (admittedly) so perhaps if I went, I would learn this.  But it's not like there's a line item breakdown of where the money goes.  I have a general belief that the [b]PTA pays for the extra custodial staff,[/b] and the extra staff around during recess (my child reports that the afterschool staff is usually there during recess, and I assume this isn't on DCPS dime).  But no clue about who pays for partner/co teachers after K.[/quote]

I doubt the PTA employs people in positions covered by DCPS collective bargaining agreements. That would be ... interesting.[/quote]

Why?  If the custodial staff were offered a second job by the PTA to work after school hours, what would be inappropriate about that?  It's not like a person isn't allowed to have a multiple jobs.  However, I assume that the in the afterschool hours, they would not be employed by DCPS.

By way of analogy, police officers frequently serve as school resource officers as a second job (employed by school district, not the city or county that is their regular employer).
