Parent Groups in the News Round-up 2/18/11
As we close out the week of Valentine's day there's a lot to love in the world of parent group news:
- Love that this school's walk-a-thon is not only a community event but also how they empowered the students play an active role in developing the activities.
- So impressed with how this PTO took a step back and came up with a positive way to handle teacher's "grant" requests.
- How can you not love this article when they talk about the PTO as the back bone of school community?
- Props to this new parent group for showing that spirit and heart count more than big budgets when it comes to puling together a wonderful school family event.
- This school knows how to do family events right! With the recent news of a decline in science fairs, it was so great to read about this science-based family night.
- Love, love, love the twist that this middle school PTO put on its basket auction: a Tacos and Trivia Night! Best part: they figured out a fun (and lucrative) way to team up parents and middle schoolers!
