[quote=Anonymous]$7000? What are you looking at? State taxes total? You know that very little of your property tax goes to school. And ~20% of what is used for school tax is returned to northern va, but ~80% goes to the southern counties in Virginia? It's fine if you don't want to donate, but don't propogate misinformation that your taxes pay for schools up here. Our PTA funds a lot of things that we appreciate...supplies, school buses for field trips, art and science enrichment programs for the class. Some of the programs, we don't appreciate as much, but we still donate time to those we do, and money if we can. These black and white, good vs. bad, PTA analysis are missing the point. If you want to be involved, do so. If you don't, it doesn't mean it is all bad. I work full time and donate a lot of time and energy. [/quote]
