Greetings PTA Supporters,
Summer Leadership Seminar 2014 quickly approaches and our goal for SLS is to continue to provide top-notch training for our PTA leaders! As a leader, supporter, and subject matter expert, we invite YOU to submit a workshop proposal today!
What topics are we looking for? So glad you asked! During the 2013 General Evaluation, our leaders asked for more training opportunities on the following topics:
- Involving and engaging teachers and school administration
- Best practices for newsletters, social media, volunteer management, fundraisers, events, and other daily tasks and challenges facing PTA leaders
- Taking the "scary" out of becoming a PTA leader
- PTSA focused workshops
- Workshops focused on Title 1 schools
- Household diversity such as divorce, military deployment, and step-families
- Finding, writing, and obtaining grants
- Learning disabilities
- Workshops focused on student leadership (Texas PTA offers a student registration fee!)
Don't see your topic above? That's ok, we still want to hear from you as we focus on finding new AND tried & true workshops every year!
