Hello Plano PTA Membership Folks!
Hope you are having a great summer and starting to think about the upcoming school year. The Texas PTA Membership theme for 07/08 is: Passport To Achievement (notice the PTA in there!) and we’ll be playing with that theme throughout the year. There are all sorts of membership resources available on the Texas PTA website and I know more are coming. If you haven’t visited the site yet, go to www.texaspta.org and sign in as a member. If you do not have the username and password (found on your membership card), please email me. Go to the Forms tab and pick Membership. Then pick Local Membership Forms. You will see there is lots of good info!
Are you going to attend Summer Session in Austin? There are many classes on membership and it is always so motivating. If you are planning to attend, please let me know. We’ll have a group dinner for the PISD PTAs on Saturday evening and it is sure to be loads of fun.
Please save the date - Friday, September 7, 12:30-2:00 for our Fall Membership Coffee. We’ll go over any questions you have about membership campaigns, awards, life member banquet and more! It is a great chance to get to know some of the other membership chairs and learn from their success.
If you attended the Officer and Chairman’s training in May, you already have many of the tools you will need. If you weren’t able to make it, we sent your packet to your school’s president so you could have the materials.
I look forward to seeing you soon! Cara Mendelsohn, Membership VP, Plano ISD Council of PTAs
