[quote=Anonymous]We've been at 2 DCPS schools, one where the PTA raised a pretty decent amount through fundraising and the other that raises very little through fundraising. In our experience, the amount raised is not really a good gauge of parental involvement or school administration efficiency as surprising as that may sound. The school that raises very little fundraising money is so super efficient that it does not need to rely on the PTA for support. Parents are also very active in other ways, mostly volunteering in the classroom. The principal is really on top of things and very creative in getting resources for the school. The school that had to raise money through the PTA, was forced to do so because the administration was so inept. Best way to find out about the school climate is to talk to parents with kids currently attending the school.[/quote]
