[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hold on, people: It's not a PTA, it's a PA, and an independent 501 C3 to boot---meaning the school does not control this entity and has no say over the PA's efforts. So if you have a problem, it's not with the administration or YU YING---it's with the independent Parent Association whose bylaws were voted on by everyone/anyone who chose to participate. So quit your attacks on the school. 
[b]And to the original poster---nice job on bringing the whole DCUM population into your school's business instead of working through the school itself.[/b] [/quote]

A little passive aggressive but a nice job.  Understand perfectly why you felt the need to bring it to DCUM so you're not the only one.[/quote]

As a YY parent, I knew from the thread title where this was coming from, but am interested in the responses about policies of other PTA/PAs throughout the city.  It appears that YY is fairly unique in the "pay to play" "pole tax".  My experience is that most folks who bother to come and vote have already paid, and that tracking this stuff is a headache, and that there is no point to "catch" the couple of families who might vote while not paying.  But, I didn't go to the meeting on the bylaws, guess I live with the outcome.[/quote]
