Unit PTA’s are constantly evolving and bringing in new board members and volunteers to organize and run the numerous activities of our busy Units. These new groups bring with them fresh ideas and energy. This evolution is the life’s blood of the PTA organization.

 

Congratulations! You’ve accepted the responsibility of helping run your PTA. You have joined the ranks of a select group of selfless volunteers dedicated to safeguarding our children’s money and making sure your organization adheres to the law and follows proper procedures. Each Unit PTA operates much like a business and is governed by State and Federal law.  All PTA’s are required to follow the rules, keep proper records, and make sure every dollar that was collected or spent was approved by the Association at a meeting, and that those transactions are clearly accounted for in the Units books. This may sound daunting but PTA simplifies the process and provides all of the guidance and instruction you need to comply. PTA has also compiled this information in a complete, easy to understand booklet called the PTA Toolkit.

 

A hard copy of the Toolkit is mailed to each Unit President prior to the beginning of the school year and is also available for download to everyone HERE.  Please take the time to read and understand the job duties and responsibilities of your position. Seventh District PTA provides training for each Board Member and is available to help and answer any questions you may have. All you have to do is ask :-)

Just in time for the new school year, the California State PTA has launched a public service announcement (PSA) campaign to engage families and promote PTA. These video announcements feature real PTA members speaking straight from the heart about the benefits and rewards of getting involved in their children's public schools. (Click here…)

In an effort to conserve, the Seventh District PTA is encouraging all Association Board Members to join our e-mail list.  Doing so will insure that you receive information and updates in a timely manner, as well as helping to reduce costs and conserve our natural resources.
