[quote=Anonymous]I don't think banning PTO fundraising solves anything. It will just hurt the "richer" schools. Instead, the poorer performing schools need additional investments **tailored to their populations**, not seen only in reference to what Ward 1 schools have. They may need more or different services -- for example, more 1:1 tutoring, and less "stem" enrichment nonsense. Also, hobbling PTOs drastically undermines the cause of integrating schools. The only way to get high SES parents to try out their low-score neighborhood schools is to allow parents to be involved, which includes fundraising. [/quote]
