[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To clarify, I was part of the PTO so I’m sharing first hand accounts from parents. I know it’s not true at all schools. I believe all parents are doing the best they can for their kids. Sometimes that’s moving schools, for whatever reason. I also do believe principal changes can be the best way to change a school. I think frequent turn over of PTOs is not good for long term improvement. But I’m not trying to have a discussion about PTOs or parent involvement. What I am talking specifically about is families getting into a school for PreK because it’s convenient and free, not because they are committed to the school. They leave at the first opportunity. [b]What if families basically had to stay as a condition for accepting that free spot?[/b][/quote] I've been around the block with PTO moms of all types and many of them have a controlling streak, but this takes the cake. Award for the most controlling daydream i've ever heard about schools. [/quote]
