As an elementary principal myself, it sounds like this guy needs to be educated on several things. First, it is very difficult to get parents involved at most schools. He should be thrilled that such a large group wants to be involved.
Secondly, as mentioned in the previous post, it is certainly a conflict of interest for him to be a signer of the checks for the PTO. He should be an active member of the PTO Board, but not on the checking account.
Most principals that I know, including me, are much too busy to micromanage the PTO. It is a benefit to everyone when the principal and PTO work together. If everyone, including the principal, keeps in mind that it is all about the students, things will run smoothly.
Good luck!
