[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend’s school didn’t have enough people to even have a PTA. No one wanted to be president so they don’t have a pta at all.

My other friend’s school has no organized room parents. There is no staff appreciation. She brings in holiday treats and planned a party for her child’s class.

You should be grateful if you have a school with robust parent involvement. We moved from a mixed SES area to one of the most affluent neighborhoods in the DMV. New school is so organized with tons of volunteers. Each activity, after school club or program requires a parent to lead it. I am grateful to all those parents who are willing to step up for various things.[/quote]

I was in the school with no volunteers and really it changed nothing.

To be constantly need people fluttering about bringing in cupcakes.[/quote]

Teachers work hard and educate my children. I am happy to chip in or organize a breakfast or lunch for them.

I like going to my child’s Halloween party and parade, going on field trips and attending school events.

It goes by fast. I’m going to enjoy this phase.[/quote]
