PTA Structure

The Lakeshore PTA is made up of elected executive positions, committee chairs and the general membership. The elected positions include president, membership, secretary, treasurer, financial secretary, room parent coordinator, parliamentarian, historian, publicity and auditor. Each year the new slate of board members is presented to the general membership and voted in at a PTA general membership meeting in the spring. The committee chairs are volunteer positions. PTA Board meetings are generally held at 7p.m. on the second Wednesday evening of each month. Everyone is welcome to attend and take part; however, only Board members and committee chairs may vote on board meeting issues.

The PTA hosts General Membership meetings, usually on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. Often there is a featured speaker or a topic of interest presented to Lakeshore parents, and at times, discussion and/or an opportunity to vote on school wide issues. Some of these meetings are for the whole family to participate in math or literacy activities. Childcare is offered to help make these meetings accessible to all. It is a good time to meet others, especially for working parents who don't get to visit the school as often as they would like. Please remember that childcare is for school-aged children.

Parent feedback is essential to the PTA. We need to know if our programs are working, how they can be improved and how you would like to be involved. Any PTA board member or committee chair can be reached by calling them at the numbers listed in this book, or you may leave a written message in the PTA box in the school office.
