Parent booster groups for schools seem to be everywhere; they have become especially important in tough financial times for schools by raising private money for a host of student activities. They are generally run by dedicated and hard-working volunteers who deserve thanks. But because they are run by people with day jobs and families, the groups can fall prey to unscrupulous individuals eager to make an illegal buck. Which is why administrators with the Port Washington-Saukville School District want the School Board to approve voluntary accounting guidelines for parent booster groups. It's a good idea for all such groups in school districts throughout the region.
