[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not give a penny. Tell your kids why they will not be going out and getting pledges -- their job is to learn, it's the adults' job to figure out how to pay for the things their school needs. Inform other parents about Boosterthon's shady practices. As long as PTAs raise a lot of money from Boosterthons, they will keep doing them. If we stand together and refuse to raise money this way, we can end it.[/quote] Yes, I would insist that my child NOT attend any assembly. Their instruction should not be interrupted, and they should be provided an alternative place to go with a teacher to continue their learning. I’d put that in writing to the principal. [/quote]
