[quote=Anonymous][quote]Prior poster here. The naysayers/ doubters are strong on this thread. It's all true, we bought books for the class and the teacher was very thankful. Additionally, I signed up for girl's lacrosse food sharing but no one else signed up so I did it all the entire semester. It took a good amount of time, and alas in the Bradlee Shopping Center I accidentally backed up into oncoming car (whose fix I paid for too). My spouse bought lacrosse equipment including stick and protection equipment for the boy's team, as well as personally picked up and transported them to weekend events.

I really don't care if you don't believe me, ongoing ACPS doubters. We parents did what we thought was needed and right. [/quote]

Thanks for doing this; I don’t doubt you did. I’m curious about what books you bought. With regard to the lacrosse food sharing/equipment, i agree that some parents do much more than others. I was very involved in the PTSA at TC and was disappointed to see the same 15-20 people at every meeting. However, I don’t think you can blame ACPS as a whole for the fact that parents are less involved at the high school level. Many parents are very involved at the elementary school level. Also, many parents either don’t speak English or can’t afford even the four bags of oranges or whatever for the lacrosse team.[/quote]
