[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those teachers buying your own supplies, do you have a decent PTA?  Our PTA supplies snacks for teachers — if the teachers at our school are buying their own pencils and paper, I’d want to know and I’d chip in for those.[/quote]

Why should basic supplies like pencils and paper be funded by the PTA (who can have widely different budgets depending on how wealthy the catchment area is)??   MCPS can by Chromebooks but not pencils and paper?  Ridiculous.[/quote]

I asked for paper donations at one point some years ago and a parent called admin and complained. I was called into the office, reprimanded for including copy paper on my list of “donations appreciated” items, and told to write an apology letter to the families for asking for such a thing. I responded by saying I would write the letter, but I would not be able to copy it and send it home in backpacks because THERE WAS NO PAPER. Now here we are again having to supply our own copy paper.[/quote]
