From time to time, we like to share success stories from a few of these groups. We raised money for large schools that raised as much as $5,000 to small schools which raise much less. We'd love the opportunity to help your organization and try to add you to our list of satisfied customers. (References are available upon request.) Long Hill United Methodist Children's Center - Trumbull, CT Thank you for all you help with the fundraiser. The suggestions for letters and ideas for marketing were much appreciated. Our results were great. Parents responded favorably and we found it to be very rewarding both financially and in terms of providing our families with a nice variety of nice music. The recording of the Nutcracker is top notch. I am enjoying mine and my niece and nephew are enjoying theirs as well. We hope to work with you again next year.

Extractions: Send a Letter to the Editor Since the publication of "A Nation at Risk" in 1983, Americans have become increasingly alarmed about the dismal results and soaring costs of their public schools. No group of citizens has a closer view of these problems or a more immediate stake in addressing them than the parents of the country's 48 million schoolchildren. Here and there, parents have won minor battles to influence curricula or oust mediocre school-board members. But as individuals, parents are no match for the forces that favor the status quo. The mission of the PTA has always been to "work on behalf of the best interests of all children on issues that affect their health, education, and welfare" and "to encourage parent involvement." With almost seven million members, the PTA offers great potential for promoting parental involvement in the educational welfare of children. But in the 1990s, that mission requires of the PTA something it has been unwilling to do: demand accountability for performance and spending at every level of the educational system. Local Control Decades ago, parents had significant influence over their neighborhood schools. Over the years, however, school districts consolidated, teachers and administrators came to see themselves as credentialed professionals, and state laws standardized educational practices and curricula. Today, many parents are less likely to get involved in their children's educational environment. Nevertheless, the impetus for reform will have to come from parents active at the grass roots.

Extractions: by Charlene Haar Since the publication of "A Nation at Risk" in 1983, Americans have become increasingly alarmed about the dismal results and soaring costs of their public schools. No group of citizens has a closer view of these problems or a more immediate stake in addressing them than the parents of the country's 48 million schoolchildren. Here and there, parents have won minor battles to influence curricula or oust mediocre school-board members. But as individuals, parents are no match for the forces that favor the status quo. Parents' most promising forum to agitate for reform and hold their local educators accountable for failure already exists: the venerated National Congress of Parents and Teachers, commonly known as the PTA. Unfortunately, parents cannot count on either their local PTA or its national leadership to advance parental interests or even air diverse viewpoints. As it operates today, the PTA is useless to parents who want to play a meaningful role in educational reform. The mission of the PTA has always been to "work on behalf of the best interests of all children on issues that affect their health, education, and welfare" and "to encourage parent involvement." With almost seven million members, the PTA offers great potential for promoting parental involvement in the educational welfare of children.

Extractions: From The Wall Street Journal Online It seemed like a simple thing, to hold a PTA meeting in the evening instead of during the workday. But for one mother, a Pittsburgh-area corporate attorney, getting it done proved impossible. When she asked the PTA president at her children's elementary school for a meeting to be held after work hours so she could attend, "I encountered open hostility," she says. Even after a parent poll at the school favored evening meetings, PTA leaders stuck to the daytime schedule. The attorney has given up and volunteers elsewhere. Getting involved in your kids' school can seem impossible for working parents. The timing of everything from school plays to bake sales, book drives and choir concerts can be a sore spot among parents, for understandable reasons. Working moms and dads desperately want to feel connected, but they need flexible volunteer opportunities and events timed around the workday. At-home parents, on the other hand, want to preserve family evenings and may feel being involved in school during the day is one benefit of staying home. The rift is one reason only one in nine working parents is active in children's schools, compared with a national average of one in four among all parents, says the National PTA, Chicago, a six-million-member parent group.
