Vice-President's Responsibilities
Each PTA decides the roles and responsibilities of the Vice-President. For this reason, Louisiana PTA does not specify the VP's duties or go into further details. The Bylaws state that the Vice-President "acts as aide to the President, assumes the duties of the President in their absence or at the President's request, and holds further responsibilities determined by the President and BOD." Many VPs oversee membership. The VP should be familiar with the President's page and the entire LAPTA website.
The Bylaws also include shared responsibilities for the Executive Committee, which includes all elected officers.
