[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]anecdotally, all of the room parents from K/1/2 at our school wound up getting their kids into AAP one way or another (some are guests in the local level IV).

we were curious who would step up for the other three classes this year since all prior room parents had kids in the same program-- guess what? those classes found room parents right off the bat, and the AAP class had to put out a special request for someone to be the room parent after no one answered the initial call.

Made me chuckle -- did people get what they want and then stop volunteering? I will note several came forward on the second request.[/quote]

Oh look it's "PTA moms get preferential treatment for AAP" lady. No, they don't, that's not how this works. Step away from the wine, Sarah/Jessica/Katie.

They absolutely did at my ES. I remember distinctly talking to some of the "in" PTA mom types. One conversation specifically blew my mind, where a few of them were ticking of their list as to who they wanted for teachers next year for their kids and they were giving to to [principal's FIRST name] next week. They did. And they got what they asked for. [/quote]

LOL at you being shocked at people using the principal's first name. Ours has a first name too and he always signs emails with his first name and everyone uses his first name when talking about him. So many people here read so much into things that are total bullshit.[/quote]

Calm down. That is one factor. I knew these women. I knew their relationships with the admin at our school. The first name basis was more than just the principal's name - there was familiarity there that other parents did not have. I'm not sure why you're even offering your ignorant opinion on a situation that you were not personally involved in and I was. The only one "reading" things into other things is the person who wasn't there - you.[/quote]

DP.  I know what you're talking about.  Same thing at our school.  The principal is quite chummy with several of the moms who volunteer for everything.  And lo and behold, all of their children got into AAP, with some principal placed.  I guess it's good to be connected!   :? [/quote]

So many jealous mommies.[/quote]

I'm the PP who started this train of thought. Not jealous, DC in first round, and I actually don't think many favors are happening. More that involved parents are also involved with supporting their kids learning at home.[/quote]

This is certainly true at our school. Join and volunteer for the PTA, get to know the Principal and your kid will get placed into AAP.  It’s a connection game.  Also, it is true that once the kids are in AAP,[b] the mommies[/b] stop volunteering as much.  [/quote]

Nice bullying tactic right there: Using title in a derogatory way to make it name calling and establish an "other" group.  Here is hoping you only do that on message boards, and not around your kids.  If you want to make a statement that you are against AAP, have an argument with valid points.  Don't start bullying people to claim things are unfair. Have proof.

Funny how you didn't feel the need to lecture 16:16 and 22:52 for their bullying tactics.   :roll:
