Give me your PTA/PTO dream wish list

I’ve just been voted in as our Parent Teacher Community organization president at my kindergartener’s elementary school.

All of our board are working parents and most of last year’s board is willing to stay on partially to train us. They were very short-handed this year so expectations are low.

If you could make a wish list of everything you wish your PTA did at your kid’s school, lay it on me. We only have like 6 parents not on the board attend the meetings, and that would be a record breaking night.

I want to build more community and get more parents involved, especially in deciding how we spend the fundraiser money. But I know people are busy.

How do I get more people to come? What kinds of events should we do? We usually do a fun run and a read a thon and restaurant nights.

We just bought our house last year and now that things are coming back to life all these little things are coming up in our grass. They seem to be coming off a branching root from this grove of something. An image search says maybe a plum? Any ideas how to kill it so it stops growing in my grass?
