[quote=Anonymous]I'm not longer at Janney but for what's its worth, I raised my paddle every year for the "fund a need." But those projects never happened. Seriously, they never happened -- the shades for the white top patio area out back? The media room that was Nora's pet project? Was there a green house bandied about at some point? At a school like Janney we're raising money for ridiculous things that often never happened. I understand the few extra teachers the PTA pays for, but these auctions have lost site of what really matters. These kids need basic skills... Some (many?) of them are leaving Janney with poor writing, spelling and math skills and we're worried about video production? Parents should get together and have a great time and donate money to a west of the school park and then ask the teachers how they can support them in fighting a system that relies so heavily on test prep that we are failing kids in basic skills.
