I assume your question is "What is the PTA like at your school?"

We have one. I'm on it. It's not as diverse as I'd like (heavily weighted toward the parents of young white children). There are other non-official organized groups of parents. I would like to be able to bring everyone together, but I am not a miracle worker. It takes time.

Our PTA raises small amounts of money, usually through events and memberships, and we pay for things like field trips and teacher appreciation lunch and other random expenses. We are a Title 1 school, so we get a lot of benefits that PTAs cover at other schools, like aftercare being free or $80/mo this year, all lunches being free, enrichment happening through the school, etc. I would like to figure out how to get some better extracurricular activities in our aftercare program, but I don't have the time or money to do that by myself and I'm not going to demand other people do it for me.[/quote]
