Givebacks How-to’s & Resources
Entering Officer and Board of Directors’ Contact Information
In July of each new membership year, your PTA should enter/update the contact information for your incoming officers and Board of Directors. This not only helps to keep your PTA in good standing, but it also ensures your new officers, board members and committee chairs receive important communication, training and event opportunities and helpful resources. Even if it is your second term, you will need to update the contact information for officers and members of your board of directors for the new school year.
ALL PTAs are required to submit contact information for all officers, committee chairs/board members and THE SCHOOL PRINCIPAL.
NOTE: You can update officer information through-out the school year if you fill a vacancy or need to change an email address. However, after June 30, past year officer information cannot be updated or removed. This is to create a historical “trail” for your PTA.
