[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm lost here. Why is 40 an issue ? Do you really not have $40 for a full year ?[/quote] Westland poster here. No, it's not a big issue for us, but I'm sure it is for some families. Or school has a 17% FARMS rate -- that's almost one in five kids, or 240 kids. Many of those families aren't going to spend $40 in order to get a directory, and they may not have smartphone access either. I feel that the PTA can and should change their policy to make this a more inclusive situation.[/quote] Will my child soon be excluded from PTA sponsored activities if our family does not pay up? [/quote] No, they are not allowed to do that. Although interestingly, I haven't been notified of any PTA sponsored activities like assemblies, etc. The PTA runs the FLEX program, which consists of after school activites for a charge. [/quote]
