[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm on our elementary's PTA Board and disapprove of school auctions. I understand it brings in money for the school, so I keep my mouth shut, but I do not condone the message that a public school can encourage inequalities, that if you have money, you get more school-related stuff. At our school, shadowing the Principal is auctioned off, or a lunch with the assistant Principal, etc. Tying a relationship with a special teacher or administrator with money is just wrong. So I don't go. Don't want to see that happening live.[/quote] This![/quote] Our principal used to do this, but is not doing it this year. I wonder if that was the rationale. I don't love the teacher outings as donations, but the Principal-for-a-Day stuff rubbed me even more the wrong way. I know for a fact I'm not the only one who felt this way, so the admin might have had a similar change of heart. [/quote]
