Question: Using PTO as a "pass-thru"

What are your thoughts on the school using the PTO as a pass-thru for accessing money quicker. For example, when they host a non-sponsored PTO event or program and ask us to deposit the check so they don't have to put it thru the school district?

Are you saying these are school events independent of the PTO that the school is asking you to deposit the check for? It doesn't seem illegal, but it also doesn't seem like something you should feel pressured into doing if it makes you uncomfortable.
