Self Declare for 2020-2021 Board Positions

4/3/2020

 
Northshore Council PTSA will be holding its 2020-2021 elections online. Since “nominations from the floor” can’t work as they normally would at an in-person meeting, Northshore Council PTSA is opening up the floor virtually by using an online submission form.  If you are interested in joining the 2020-2021 Northshore Council PTSA Executive Board, now is the time to self declare!
