【Detailed description of the incident】
Netizens broke the news: Parents paid for classroom renovation
On October 9, some netizens posted that Xujiagou Primary School in Danjiangkou City, Hubei Province asked parents to pay for the renovation of classrooms, and listed a detailed breakdown of expenses, totaling 2,400 yuan. The breakdown of expenses includes various expenses such as anti-magnetic powder and accessories, white latex paint, blue car paint, scaffolding rental and freight, and labor costs. This news quickly fermented on the Internet and sparked heated discussions among many netizens.
The Education Bureau responded: The Parent Association has acted spontaneously and has intervened in the investigation
In the face of questions and heated discussions from netizens, on the morning of October 10, a reporter from Zongguan News called the Danjiangkou Municipal Education Bureau. The staff of the Education Bureau said that after a preliminary investigation, it was learned that the classroom renovation was a spontaneous act of the members of the parent committee of Class 11 of the third grade of Xujiagou Primary School, and the school did not know about it, and never notified the parents to pay the money. Hehe! Anyway, everyone doesn't admit that something happened, and this has always been their consistent style.
According to the staff member, during the National Day holiday, members of the parent committee of Class 11 of the third grade spontaneously bought paint and rented scaffolding, and entered the classroom to paint the walls. Afterwards, the members of the Parent Committee asked all the parents to share the cost equally. Although this is not school-led, the EDB believes that there are management problems in schools. The parent committee dares to trespass into the campus without the consent of the school? Even fools understand the truth, who can fool?
School response: Investigation is ongoing
Subsequently, the reporter contacted Xujiagou Primary School in Danjiangkou City. A staff member said that a number of parents have reported the matter, and the school is currently investigating and dealing with it, and the specific situation is inconvenient to disclose. However, the school will actively cooperate with the EDB's investigation and give parents a satisfactory answer as soon as possible.
Fee details exposed: parents call it "outrageous"
In the video posted by netizens, a detailed account of the cost of "classroom materials and labor costs for class 11" is clearly visible. Among them, the expenditure of white latex paint and blue car paint has aroused strong doubts from parents. Some parents said: "Blue car paint for classroom renovation? Isn't that outrageous? ”
In addition, some parents expressed dissatisfaction with the behavior of the PTA members who decided to renovate the classrooms without authorization and split the costs. They believe that the PTA should play more of a role as a bridge between home and school, rather than making decisions for parents on their own.
The role of the parent committee is hotly debated: too deep involvement or active action?
With the fermentation of the incident, the role of the Parent Committee has also aroused widespread heated discussions from all walks of life. Some people think that the PTA is too deeply involved in the management of the school, and even begins to "overstep the bounds" and do things for the school that they should not do. This will not only disrupt the normal management order of the school, but also damage the relationship of trust between parents and the school.
However, some people believe that the parent committee, as a bridge between home and school, should actively build a good communication platform for parents and schools. In matters such as classroom renovation, the Parent Committee can play a role in organizing, coordinating and supervising to ensure the smooth development of all work.
So, what role did the PTA play in this incident? Why did they decide to renovate their classrooms and split the cost? Are there any management loopholes in the school? These are questions that need to be answered urgently.
[Education Bureau's in-depth investigation: ordered the school to hold a parent-teacher meeting to report the results]
In response to this matter, the Danjiangkou Municipal Education Bureau has set up a special investigation team to conduct an investigation in the school. They said that they would find out the truth as soon as possible and deal with it in accordance with laws and regulations. At the same time, the Education Bureau also ordered schools to convene parent-teacher meetings to report the results of the investigation and handling, and strengthen communication between home and school to ensure that similar incidents do not happen again.
[Sublimation summary at the end of the article]
This incident not only triggered us to think deeply about the role of the parent committee, but also made us see the importance of home-school communication. Both home and school are indispensable and important forces in a child's growth. Only by strengthening the communication between home and school and forming a joint force in education can we provide a strong guarantee for the healthy growth of children.
At the same time, we should also realize that the parent committee, as a bridge between home and school, should actively act and perform its duties in accordance with laws and regulations. They should play more of an organizational, coordinating, and supervisory role, rather than making decisions for parents or intervening too deeply in school management. Only in this way can we ensure smooth and effective communication between home and school.
【Guide Reader Interaction】
Nowadays, it's not easy to read a book, think about the time I was studying, my parents didn't even know that the school was in that direction, and the parent committee was even more unheard of! The current parent committee is very bad, and the responsibility of the parent committee itself is only to assist teachers in doing some peripheral work, but now it is good that they dare to meddle in anything. From the collection of class fees to the selection of class teachers. The class committee even dared to steal the limelight from the school! To be honest, this wind can't last!
