PTA

The next meeting is scheduled for March.  We are in need of parents and caregivers to take over the positions on the board whose terms are coming to an end.  It is important to have these positions filled as to go into the next school year with vacancies on the Board will hurt our school and our children, so please consider volunteering.

Each term is for two years and the positions are as follows:

President

 

 First Vice President 

 

 

Treasurer

  

Assistant Treasurer

 

If you are interested or would like to nominate somebody who you think would be able to serve the PTA in this capacity, please email info@memorialelementarypta.org.
