I am very interested in this also. There is nothing in our bylaws about this and when I asked the last PTO they just said don't worry about it. I am going to do some research and if I find out I will definetly let you know. If you find out something please post a note and let me know.

We have nothing written in stone about how much to leave in our PTO account at the end of the year. I'm just curious as to how much some of you set aside. Is it the same from year to year? At times we've had a large amount left when we were working towards a big project and other times we've had $2500 to start off the next year, which was plenty until our fall fundraiser. We have nothing major that we are working towards right now. I just feel like the parents, teachers and kids who worked this year to put the money there should reap the rewards from it. For example, extra money for classroom needs or something special for the kids. Others feel like there should be a larger amount left in case of an emergency. What are your opinions??
