September 03
Dear PTA Leaders,
I hope you are all off to a good start to the new School year!
Your Alaska PTA Board of Managers has been very busy; delivering membership cards, answering questions, attending local PTA meetings and Board meetings and training sessions, putting together future mailings and looking in files for information that units need. In short we have been servicing the local units.
For the next month we will be doing planning for the Issues Conference and Reflections Program along with more unit training. I will also be attending the Anchorage Council of PTAs Leadership Training on September 20, to do a session on bylaws. If you can possibly attend this training you should do so. The Anchorage Council does a great job on this training; it includes a ton of information and is very comprehensive. Five other BOM members will be traveling to Phoenix to a National PTA sponsored training for state board members.
For those of you with bylaws amendments in the works, our committee chair has gotten moved so we are up and running and should be getting back to you in short order. I know that so far this summer we have seen bylaws for at least 10 units. If you can use email for these it is very helpful and faster to get out to the committee. The email lines have been buzzing, which has been very helpful. It makes it much easier for us to get back to you when we have all of our information at hand. “At hand” for me usually means in front of my computer.
I have heard from several units that are having difficulty and we are working with those people to see if we can help get things ironed out. The good news is that we also have several groups that are in the process of organizing new units.
If your unit needs information, help or training, or if you know of another unit who may need assistance, PLEASE let us know.
