This is the most important and useful class of them all, as it will prepare you and your fellow officers to run your PTA with an eye toward the important legal and fiscal requirements in running a nonprofit. PTA and the Law deals with state and federal rules and regulations relevant to running a charitable, tax-exempt, nonprofit corporation in the state of Washington, and will explain how these rules impact your PTA. PTA and the Law is a required class for at least one elected officer per PTA each year.
This presentation will help participants understand the importance of the nominating committee for your PTA, how to elect them, and methods of organization so they have the tools to help them recruit qualified candidates for leadership positions.

We’ll work on preparation for presenting and facilitating both virtually and in-person. Come for some great discussions and coaching!
