![]() The Trailwood Elementary PTA in Overland Park, Kan., gave the money planned for its spring 2020 events to a fund at the Shawnee Mission Education Foundation that provides emergency assistance to families. Some school parent groups, unable to hold events they had budgeted for, have donated the funds to organizations in their community. The PTO asked a restaurant to save space in its parking lot where people could donate or pick up food for their families. The Sandy Springs (Ga.) Charter Middle School PTO came up with a different solution. In Keene, N.H., the Symonds Elementary School PTA held a food drive that collected 64 boxes of food to be delivered to students who receive free or reduced-price meals at school. In hard-hit Washington state, the Lafayette Elementary PTA in Seattle placed plastic bins of books, games, and food in front of the school for families to take what they need.
