President
Vice President
Secretary
Treasurer
The ILHS PTSA encourages anyone interested in serving in an elected role to self-nominate during our May 29th General Membership Meeting. Electing officers is a critical step in making sure the PTSA can operate and continue to do all the awesome things we do next year - like school & student grants, community programs, emergency preparedness, senior events, and more!
Self-declarations for positions will be called for during the General Membership meeting on May 29, 2025. If there is a contested position, we will proceed with a ballot vote. If no position is contested, we will hold the election by voice vote.
Your leadership and voice matter! Let’s work together to keep our PTSA strong!
If you have questions about these roles or the self nomination process, please email nomcom@ilhsptsa.org.
Each year our PTSA holds elections for four of our officer positions. These elected officers are referred to as the "executive committee" and are a part of our PTSA Board of Directors.
Stepping up to PTSA leadership is a great way to be involved in your student's school, meet and create relationships with school staff members and other parents/caregivers, and work to enhance the learning and school environment for everyone at ILHS!
Our elected officers are:
President: The president is the spokesperson of the PTSA and chair of our meetings. They are responsible for keeping tabs on all of the activities, committees and "goings-on" of our PTSA.
Vice President: The vice president acts as a back-up to the president in all things. They also complete the annual WSPTA Standards of Affiliation document and are responsible for reserving venues for events.
Treasurer: The treasurer is responsible for maintaining accurate and timely financial records. They receive, deposit, and disperse funds for the PTSA.
Secretary: The secretary prepares accurate minutes of all PTSA meetings. They also maintain a roster of members and verifies quorum at meetings.
Our elected officers are required to attend at least on Washington State PTA approved training a year. One officer must attend the class "PTA & the Law" each year to receive training on PTA non-profit best practices.
To learn more details about the responsibilities of each of these positions, please look over this document.
