Are you interested in a position on the PTO Executive Board? We are currently accepting nominations for Secretary and Vice President. Board elections are held annually in May, and the PTO bylaws state that any member can run for the position of Secretary or Vice President. (The Treasurer and President positions must be filled by someone who has already served on the Board for at least one year prior to their nomination.) All parents and guardians of Huntington students are members of the Parent-Teacher Organization!
To submit a nomination for the 2021-2022 Executive Board, send an email to Melissa Hidek, Office of Family Engagement Program Aide for Huntington, at [email protected] no later than 3:00 p.m. on April 30. This email should include “PTO Board nomination” in the subject line, and the text of the email should indicate: your name and contact information, student’s grade level(s), and the position you are interested in (Secretary or Vice President). Voting for all Executive Board positions will take place at the May 13 PTO meeting (6:30 p.m. on Zoom).
The duties of the officers are as follows:
Vice President: Assists with organizing volunteers and events, or with other activities as needed. Attends PTO fundraisers and events as needed. Conducts meetings in the President’s absence.
Secretary: Keeps minutes of all meetings, writes letters/emails, creates flyers, and maintains a record of correspondence. Also maintains the PTO website, email account, listserve, and social media.
The Executive Board meets regularly once a month throughout the year (in addition to the general PTO meetings), or more frequently if needed. Executive Board meetings are typically held on a weekday evening, depending on the Board members’ availability.
We hope to return to many of our typical activities in the 2021-2022 school year. In past years, the PTO has organized many fun events for students and families such as family dances, semi-formal dances, and Family Bingo Night. We also run fundraisers which are used to support field trips and purchase classroom supplies. All of these activities, events, and fundraisers are run by volunteers! Please consider getting involved, either on our Board or by simply attending a meeting!
