Last year I went to a PTA meeting

because my son (8 years old) was performing. During the meeting, the woman that did special education stood up and requested money for wipes. Apparently she takes care of kids that have accidents during the day. While requesting the money, she was in tears, and looked embarrassed that she had to ask for that. This is a woman that takes care of kids, and the district can't fork over anything for that.
The PTA granted the money. Also my wife and I went to Target and got a huge box of wipes.
