Hello, Proud PTA Leaders! As the end of school approaches, here are some important To-Dos!
1) LAPTA Annual General Membership Meeting (Required)
2) Elections for LAPTA Treasurer - Call for Nominees
3) Officer Registration (Required)
4) Givebacks
1) LAPTA Annual General Membership Meeting (Required)
All Local PTA Units are obligated to attend the virtual LAPTA Annual General Membership Meeting on Monday, May 26, 2025 at 6:30pm. It will be brief this year with Elections for the LAPTA Treasurer and then summary reports from the LAPTA Board. Each PTA needs at least one person to attend. Quorum is a majority of those registered, so please register here.
2) Elections for the LAPTA Treasurer
CALL FOR NOMINEES -- Elections for the LAPTA Treasurer will take place at the Annual General Membership Meeting. Please self-nominate yourself or another person that would be a great Treasurer for LAPTA! It is not a huge commitment with almost everything being electronic and virtual. If you'd like to learn more, please please please email Beth at President@LouisianaPTA.org.
3) Officer Registration (Required)
All incoming officers are required to register with LAPTA. You can currently register for the 2025-26 year at Louisianapta.org/register. (This will later only be done on Givebacks by updating the officer information for your PTA
4) Givebacks Welcome Workshops
Please create your Givebacks account if you haven't done that yet. This is required to submit LAPTA dues and the Affiliation Report. We also have a tips page at LouisianaPTA.org/givebacks.
Learn all the basics you need to get going! Webinar workshops are scheduled for May 6 at 6:30pm, May 7 at noon, and May 8 at 6:30pm. Register now for the meeting that you can attend here. Please try to have at least one person from your PTA attend, especially any incoming officers! You can also schedule one-on-one workshops with Valerie from Givebacks by emailing her at Valerie.Licata@givebacks.com. It would make her so happy to do that!
To all of the outgoing Officers and Board Members, THANK YOU for generously volunteering and making a difference for so many students! Your dedication and love made a difference, and it's been my honor to work with you. For those staying on, I still have one more year with you as LAPTA President. Again, THANK YOU!!
Beth Maillho
LAPTA President
