(7,606 posts)1. What ever happened to the PTA? It seems there is a war between Parents and Teachers
by a very small vocal minority.

(16,926 posts)2. it's really a 3-way 'tug-of-war'.........
There's the teachers - trying to do their job in the way they know how -
there's the 'administration' - trying to provide the education in the way they believe it should be -
there's the parents (at least those who choose to be involved!) - trying to get the best education for their children.
SO many ways that those 'plans' can be thrown off track..........

were not learning in school. I best most of them never attended a PTA meeting until anti-wokeness became a thingy.
