[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It usually happens at well-off schools. At our Title 1, we pay for a catered breakfast and people give gifts on their own if they want to. that's it![/quote] I’m at a well-off school and the PTA is taking care of all the activities (breakfast, lunch etc) except for one day i assume by using PTA funds . One day is up to the room parent and typically she asks parents to send in cards while the room parent picks up a gift card using class funds. So OP’s hate is misplaced. There are plenty of PTAs that don’t require volunteer support from every parent. Ours is really great.[/quote] Our PTA is putting the food on the room parents and asking us to buy it. They don't want to send it to all the PTA members. Same with volunteering for a host of other things. I've spent a fortunate already as a room parent. I'm so waiting for this year to be over and let someone else do it next year.[/quote]
