We ask each of our local PTA presidents and their school principal to attend this yearly workshop, designed to help lay a foundation for the ’25-’26 academic year. We will cover the purposes and limitations of PTAs and school administrators, conflict resolution, and other topics to help PTAs and schools build strong partnerships.
We have revamped the event this year to be shorter, less repetitive, and with more time for networking.
One principal from each school is required to attend this event. PTA presidents should prioritize attendance. If your PTA’s president is unable to attend, another board member should be designated to participate.
