[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. As a full-time working mom who would never have the time to put in the volunteering you did, I'm glad to see PTA involvement doesn't have a bearing on classroom assignment.

2. Aside from the physically aggressive kid being in your kid's class, I feel like you don't have a grievance here.  Your kid is in a public school; if you want there to be no kids with learning disabilities or other academic issues with your kid, send your kid to a private school. Otherwise, deal with it.[/quote]

No, PTA involvement does not have a bearing on classroom assignment.  Being a parent who is working for the whole school (either as a volunteer or as a participant) however does send the signal to the teachers  that you are an involved partner in your students education.  That is a positive thing and it does build up a good working relationship with the school.  If you are doing this just to jockey for favors at the school it becomes very evident to the teachers.  No one likes those kind of parents. Not even the hardworking PTA parents!
