[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will say that as a BASIS parent, we're not donating directly to the school. If they want our money (and we were huge donors in elementary), they can allow a PTO. [/quote] I don’t want a PTO. And I’m MUCH happier giving to BASIS, where I know my funds will go directly to teachers, than I was at our prior elementary, where funding was wasted on an endless list of annoying parent-driven pet projects…. [/quote] The beauty of a benevolent dictatorship, one of the most effective political systems the world over. That's how things worked in schools in my developing country. Parents were encouraged to tip teachers generously so they'd teach, and treat, our children well. [/quote]
