It's all too common, I'm afraid. We have the same problem. In fact, our district is like Dazey's in that they're pretty much hostile to all parents, not just parents of GT kids, at least in terms of volunteering and being on school grounds. They want our money for the eternal fundraisers, but that's about it.

Turning away volunteers is the thing that gets me. How can any school do that? Surely there's SOMETHING you can find for willing and able parents to do, especially in a distract claiming 40% GT with no GT program until 4th grade, like ours! (The same percentage as kimck's, strangely...) I find this anti-volunteer trend to be foolish and really, really disconcerting!
