Reminder about Council Delegates
As announced at our May Regular Association Meeting: Anyone is welcome to attend Council's Regular Association Meetings & members of local units may serve on multiple boards, but they may only represent one PTA with council. Council is trying to set a better example for our local units and part of that is doing a better job following our bylaws and standing rules. Local Presidents please be aware of this information as you are selecting and appointing Council Delegates for your Local Unit. If one of your delegates is representing another school they are not able to represent your school. (This includes President, President's Alternate, or Council Delegate)
If you have any concerns or would like to discuss the matter further please contact us at arlingtoncouncilofptas@gmail.com
