This messy story just goes on and on, it seems.  You may recall that the Prince George's County (MD) county PTA was disbanded by the Maryland state PTA last spring. County officers (a new slate had been elected just weeks earlier) were less than pleased.  So, the update today is the the state and national PTA have appointed seven "team members" to help local PTAs, though the county complaints contiue.

Doesn't this all just seem like a whole lot of hubbub about stuff that's a long, long way from the typical parent group's goals and experience (and needs)? Or is that just me? Worth noting that the PTA's in this County send roughly $32,000 per year out to state and national PTA.
