[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The worst think about Westland is its current PTA president. She thinks  she runs the school but the principal is very happy to have somebody who screens every post for the list serve and communicates everything to the families. That way she does not have to address any controversial topics.

I would say the situation is horrible because of that. You have one parent who is a control freak and the school admin is taking advantage of it. [/quote]
I sincerely doubt you are at Westland.  The principal has not shied away from controversy, she has actively addressed many issues, including achievement gap and sexting.  
The current PTA president is certainly not perfect but is far from a "control freak" 
As a parent, I am happy that the posts are screened.  I don't need a bunch of emails about off-topic things.

I am not the one who posted the message but I am familiar with the PTA president and can tell you that we are not talking about off topic subjects that are being disallowed. I also agree that the problem is not the PTA president but the principal who allows this situation to continue. We should all have equal access to the listserve to express our opinions on academic as well as health and safety issues at school. For example parents were not allowed to post messages about lice at Outdoor Ed. Was that off topic?[/quote]
