[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Here's what I don't understand (as a 5th grade parent): why don't students just start a PTO? BASIS can't stop them from creating something like "friends of BASIS" and collecting money that could be given to the school with strings attached, and I would much rather donate to a PTO than to BASIS itself, because they piss me off on the regular. [/quote] Sorry "students" should be "parents" - why don't the parents just start the organization (not ask permission - just do it). [/quote] Serious question? You can't have served as a PTA official. PTAs or POs need to be incorporated as non-profits with school support to raise money legally. The BASIS franchise doesn't permit PTAs or POs. They permit "Booster Clubs" that raise money for the school and hand it off to admins. At BASIS DC, the funds are used to boost teachers' salaries. [/quote]
