[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sure they are just “hanging out” and it’s not for the purpose of facilitating future parent participation/volunteers or events? Because I often coordinate and solicit volunteers — it’s a lot of work. I haven’t used pta funds for that but wouldn’t be opposed to it. What I always see in every one of my kids’ schools are the parents who NEVER volunteer and justify it by denigrating the parents who DO volunteer, saying things like how we are just in it for our social lives and to get attention. It’s trite and old and often sexist. Don’t volunteer if you don’t want to but back off of the people who do. [/quote] I'm not op and I've been active in my kid's ptas. Op is right that some of the activities are inefficient wastes of money. You are out of line to shut down criticism of pta activities. You need checks and balances because I've seen personalities come in and waste $.[/quote]
