The board of the school's PTSA (Parent-Teacher-Student Association) voted to abandon its ties to the state and national PTA and form a PTSO (Parent-Teacher-Student Organization). It had received numerous state and national PTA awards. Northrop's PTSA had previously stopped contributing to Fort Wayne's PTA Council, giving instead to an organization it considers more productive and worthwhile - the citywide clothing bank. Cathy Simonds, president of the now-defunct PTSA, said she was "no longer willing to pay for something that didn't even exist" as far as her high school was concerned. Worse, according to Simonds, the money sent to PTA Council in previous years simply vanished, leaving her questions as to its whereabouts unanswered for several months.

The PTA Goes Kaput Given the way ptas are governed, it is instance, 26,000 members of the indiana Congressof are instead joining independent parentteacher organizations (ptos). http://www.charterproject.org/relarticles/ptakaput.htm
Extractions: The PTA goes Kaput This year, the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, commonly known as the PTA, is celebrating its centennial. But the national PTA has little to cheer about. Fewer than a quarter of America's public schools have active PTA chapters, and officially, PTA membership has fallen from a peak of 12 million in 1966 to 6.5 million today. PTA leaders offer many reasons why their rolls are declining. But they have done little to address the PTA's gravest problemits subservience to the National Education Association Federation of Teachers (AFT). Throughout its history, the PTA has supported higher salaries and better working conditions for teachers. But in 1968, the teacher members of the PTA threatened to withdraw membership and boycott the PTA if the PTAs supported school boards in teacher strikes. Thereupon, the PTA rolled over and adopted a position of "neutrality" on teacher strikes as well as the issues negotiated in union contracts, such as class size, the annual number of parent-teacher conferences, and how parental grievances are resolved. "Neutrality" on these important issues is a big setback for parents: When school boards sacrifice parent interests to teacher interests, as often happens, the PTA does not object. As millions of parents dropped out of the PTA, those who remained tended to be pro-union or unaware of the PTA's pro-union positions. And so the PTA has gradually evolved into a front for the teachers' unions. Consider these recent issues:

11-19-2002 - Whitko Hears From Parent Concerned About ALC Besides board communications from schools ptos or ptas, the board also oftenhears from Heard from Worl the indiana Bond Bank approved on Nov. http://www.timeswrsw.com/N1119022.HTM
Extractions: BY DAVID SLONE, Times-Union Staff Writer PIERCETON Having at one point to stop talking because of tears, South Whitley Elementary PTO president Valerie Warner gave an emotional plea to the Whitko School Board Monday. Her plea was for the board to consider relocating the alternative learning classroom for high school students out of the elementary school. She said she understands it is an academic program, not necessarily a disciplinary program, but typical high school behavior is not appropriate for an elementary school. The PTO discussed the matter at its 3:15 p.m. meeting Monday with Superintendent Dr. William Worl and board members, but, Warner said, she also wanted to get the issue into the school boards meeting minutes. The major concern, she said, is not of the program as a whole, but the location is wrong. I dont think normal high school behavior is (acceptable) for an elementary, she said. When she sends her child to school, she said, she wants to trust nothing will happen, big or small, because of the students there. Another reason the program needs relocated, she said, is because South Whitley needs the classroom space.
