Join us for a brief PTSA meeting tonight starting at 6:45p in the Marcus auditorium. Our main business will be to elect our 2013 nominating committee.
The purpose of the nominating committee is to recognize and seek qualified nominees for the elected leadership of the Marcus PTSA. The members of the committee, therefore, have a tremendous influence on the future of the PTA and should be selected carefully. Serving on a nominating committee is an honor and a privilege. This committee is the PTSAs most influential internal body, and because it deals with sensitive issues, deliberations of this committee are kept confidential.
Committee members should have a broad acquaintance with the membership and an understanding of the organization’s functions and purposes. The committee should include both experienced leadership and newer members.
The Nominating Committee is responsible for:
- Seeking applicants interested in a position on the PTSA Board for the subsequent school year
- Reviewing and discussing the applicants’ qualifications
- If there is more than one applicant for any board position, the nominating committee then votes to determine which candidate is most qualified for the position
- At the PTSA meeting where the board members are elected, the nominating committee officially nominates all selected candidates for final vote by the assembly
