[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, I'd actually rather my PTA do it. I'm new. Next year, I'll do it for new parents. I just think they should put in that little effort. But I've heard nothing at all.[/quote]

1-Summer for most schools just started last week. Some schools are still in session. Give them time. 
2-Get used to this. You can't expect the PTA to do everything immediately and on your timeline, unless you're willing to offer to help. [/quote]

Yes, I agree with this. School just finished. Parents, including parent association members, are wiped out. Many of these parents have put in a LOT of effort over the course of the school year. And because waitlists shift over the summer, with families accepting spots at other schools and new families getting offers, there are good reasons to hold introductory play dates mid- to late summer. Play dates will probably happen, but not right away. If you want to connect with other families sooner, you could try posting on a neighborhood listserv.  [/quote]
