My committee will do our best to make sure your bylaws approval process is as smooth as possible. There are some things you can do to help the process.
First, the template that you can download from the website is a draft only, and should be used as your working copy. Once your membership approves the bylaws, then transfer everything to the original template. A copy of the new template was sent to all PTA Presidents in the white leadership box mailing the end of August. If you did not get it, then please contact the MD PTA office and ask for one. Bylaws not on the new template will be returned, so please save yourself some time and make sure you use it!
After submission, watch for any further correspondence – if the committee has questions or needs clarification, the process of approving your bylaws cannot move forward until we hear back from you.
Finally, I want to point out the requirements your PTA must meet in order to be in good standing with MD PTA:
