Executive Board
Our Executive Board has general supervision our PTO meetings, makes recommendations to PTO, and performs many other duties. Officers are expected to attend each meeting and contribute to making our PTO effective. Officers serve for two years, July 1 - June 30. The president, secretary, and communications director exit at the end of the even years; the vice-president and treasurer exit at the end of the odd years. Officers may hold (by election) the same office for consecutive years.
- President The president presides at all meetings of the organization and coordinates the work of the officers. The president serves as the guardian of the organization’s mission. The president, with the approval of the executive board, appoints special committees deemed necessary by the executive board. The president also performs duties as described by the PTO approved job description. At executive board meetings, the president only votes in the case of a tie.
- Vice President The vice-president acts in the absence of the president. The vice-president is the liaison between the chairperson of a committee and the executive board. With the approval of the general membership, the vice-president automatically assumes the office of the president, upon the vacation of that office until the next election.
- Secretary The secretary records the minutes of the general and executive board meetings. The secretary also compiles and maintains all PTO documents.
- Treasurer The treasurer keeps current and accurate accounts of the business transactions of the PTO.
- Communications Director The communications director collects and distributes (subject to the principal’s approval) any correspondence as needed by the organization, and directed by the president.
