Join the Walker Elementary PTA Board – We Need YOU!
Are you ready to make a difference at Walker Elementary? The PTA will have several board positions open next year, and we’re looking for enthusiastic and dedicated individuals to join our team! This is a fantastic opportunity to get more involved, influence school activities, and contribute to our community's success.
We have a variety of roles to fit different interests and levels of commitment:
- President: Leads meetings, coordinates projects, oversees legal and financial obligations, and works with the board to achieve goals.
- Secretary: Handles membership records, takes meeting minutes, and ensures effective communication with board members and administration.
- Treasurer: Manages the budget, handles deposits and payments, and presents financial updates at meetings.
The executive board (President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer) positions are two-year terms. While paid Walker Elementary employees cannot hold these roles, substitutes and committee positions are open to all.
Other exciting committee roles include:
- Fundraising Committee: Help organize events like the Fall Carnival, Silent Auction, and Color Run.
- Spirit Night Coordinator: Schedule and promote monthly spirit nights and skate nights, sharing event details with the school community.
