Theft Happens

We won’t call it our monthly theft update, but sometimes it seems that way. 

Here,  a former Florida PTO treasurer is arrested and charged with theft of $15,000 from her group.  And right along with it is story of ex-PTA treasurer in Washington state getting jail time (good) for stealing nearly $8,000 from her group.

Worth repeating:  no group is immune.  There are best practices you can take to significantly reduce your chances of being victimized.  And, of course, getting insurance for your parent group is a no-brainer.
