[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The anti-School Board group is reporting that it won all but one of the seats on the TJ PTSA.

Fantastic - this needs to happen at other schools that have been shat upon by the School Board, and the School Board members recalled. [/quote]

Not sure how a single school PTA will show the school board anything or lead to recalls. Also, can't really call it a mandate - the vote difference - less than 30 votes and close to 50/50 for most of the races- sends more of the message that the parents are rather evenly split.   To me, the issue is about how the school will integrate the Class of 2025 and/or advocate for future changes to the new admission policy while representing all the families and supporting all the kids.

This is correct. The TJ PTSA has had essentially no impact on policy as is, and they had essentially the founder and primary mouthpiece of Coalition for TJ in their ranks as the Corresponding Secretary - someone with a very big megaphone and a wide followership.

With the margins being as slim as they were this year (which was shocking, by the way) they won't last long as a power base once an entire class of families enters the school via a process that they publicly reject.[/quote]

LOL.  A school PTA - yeah, that's a powerful and formidable group.  [/quote]

Right? But people here will act like they have a voice because they're the PTSA at [i][b]TJ[/b][/i]. Give me a break. [/quote]
