[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I try my best but I have been known to miss an important detail in an email, forgotten something, arrived late. Apologies!

I try but can't be perfect and you don't see in this one mistake the 95 percent of the time that I do a great job and feel like Super Organized Mom.[/quote]

This.  Chill out OP.  I get that you’re putting in time to make sure parents are informed, but sometimes things get missed because people are dealing with work/family issues or just plain forget.[/quote]

+1,000 I have no clue how people like OP can expect working parents of more than one child to stay on top of every single ridiculous request from schools and parents organizing things. It's too much! All the class parties and events and snack day and so on and so on. I am very organized with a weekly white board and a monthly calendar plus a notebook organizing all my kids' school activities etc but I still miss stuff because the demands are just out of control. Why does sports need to have a snack, for example? Bring your own freaking snack for your kid if you let your kids snack all the time. But don't make other busy moms sign up to bring snacks, especially when we don't let our kids stuff their face with garbage just because they ran around on a field for an hour. I have 10 given sign up genius' at any given time that I have to manage, let alone the rest of my family's life and my career. So step down, OP.[/quote]

Or spirit week?  
I am supposed to find this buried in the school newsletter, then remember to send my kid in with a hat a week from next Tuesday.  
If you want my kid in a hat, send an email Monday afternoon that says HAT DAY Tomorrow .   [/quote]
