[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a very active PTA at our S. Arlington school. We have some SAHMs but most appear to be dual income families. We had a party this morning and out of 24 kids I think 12 had parents there? Maybe more? Some both parents. So it is not that crazy to have lots of parents involved (we are a choice school though)[/quote] Oakridge?[/quote] No, Claremont. There is an insane amount of parental involvement and activities (almost overwhelming!). [/quote] Yep, not surprising. At a choice school, parents have already displayed a high level of engagement just by sending their children there. That's the flip side of the PTA quandary at schools with large numbers of poor kids. It's not just that their parents don't have time or resources to come tribute. It's also that the parents who are motivated used those energies first to avoid said school and then to enrich the alternative. It's a double whammy.[/quote]
