[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a room parent and always do Sign Up Genius for snacks and supplies for any party. I only do one $ collection a year and that is for the teacher end of year gift. We are an affluent community and I would never expect everyone to contribute to pizza - that is ridiculous. PTA is different - that is for overall school enrichment, not individual class parties. [/quote]

After reading this thread, I've concluded this is the best approach.

The only thing I would say is ask for a small amount for the gift because many may give something on their own as well[/quote]

It is insanity that people are in a huff about a pizza party once or twice during the whole year. You don’t provide lunch that day. Your kids enjoy it. This is such a tiny thing to help build the classroom community to have downtime for a special occasion - field day or Xmas time. I am
Baffled by any other stance than this is okay. I get lots of appreciative remarks from parents how they love the pics I sent of the class party- even from those that contributed zero. It’s a fricken special lunch 1-2 times out of 9+ months. My goodness. [/quote]
