Updating PTA/PTSA Leaders in memberplanet for 2021-2022

8/12/2021

 
Picture
All PTA/PTSAs must update their officer information in memberplanet, the membership database used by Washington State PTA (WSPTA). Updating officer information is a requirement for all PTAs per the WSPTA Standards of Affiliation. Doing so gives WSPTA and Northshore Council PTSA the means to contact a PTA/PTSA if a need arises as well as ensuring that all PTA/PTSA leaders are included in important WSPTA and Northshore Council communications.

The way to communicate leader information in memberplanet is through its Committees Module.
There are a number of resources to help local PTA leaders use and understand memberplanet. However, because the Committees Module feature is so new, the documentation and support is not yet very extensive. Due to the importance of updating officer information, Northshore Council PTSA has created a guide to help users navigate the process.
Download the “Assigning and Updating PTA Leaders in memberplanet” guide to get started!

2021 Welcome Letter From Your Council President

8/9/2021

 
Hello Northshore PTA Leaders!
 
We all know that last year was incredibly challenging, stressful and at times downright frustrating. But, the barriers COVID presented also encouraged us to think outside our comfort zones to come up with new and innovative ways to engage with and support our communities. Through it all, our Northshore PTAs have continued to be strong, flexible and tenacious. I am so proud of every single one of our PTAs for not backing down in the face of such an extreme challenge and continuing to achieve their mission of supporting every child's potential. As we step into the 2021-2022 school year, it seems that this next school year will be more of the same - challenging us once again to pivot quickly and adapt to changing circumstances that are beyond our control.
 
I want to let you know that we are always here for you. Our mission as your Northshore PTSA Council is to support the work you do at the local PTA level. We have many resources that can help you navigate the day to day PTA work, as well as the unexpected, including:
  • Many position specific Facebook groups for Northshore PTA leaders to make connections and ask questions;
  • Virtual roundtables so that we can share and learn from one another;
  • A bi-weekly newsletter, website, Facebook and Twitter to help keep you informed;
  • Trainings so you can learn how to run your non-profit and become a stronger PTA leader;
  • Meetings to share information and connect you with district and community leaders;
  • Grants to support your PTA’s next educational speaker or community event; and, of course;
  • Personalized, one-on-one support - we’re just an email or zoom meeting away!

Our 2021-2022 Council team is ready to help you continue to do amazing things for our students, families, schools and communities.

​Wishing you a fantastic school year!
