York PTA Board of Directors and Committees:

The board of directors is the main decision-making body and legal representative of a PTA; the members expect board members to be responsive to their

needs and to be well informed as they conduct the business of the association. The board’s role is to ensure the continuity of the association by planning

for its future: establishing and reviewing the major policies and programs that support its goals and objectives and making sure that the organization is

fiscally sound.

children. Standing Committees perform a continuing function necessary for the ongoing operation of the unit.
