Membership Awards
Texas PTA recognizes outstanding membership recruiting
efforts. Many awards are automatically calculated based on the PTA’s membership
totals as recorded on October 15 and March 15. The Membership nomination form is
used to apply for any awards not calculated automatically by the Texas PTA
Office.
NOTE:
Local PTAs who have not paid dues for at least 20 members by October 15 will be
designated as inactive.
Dues and a roster for at least 20 members must be postmarked
by October 15 to determine eligibility to vote at the Texas PTA Annual
Convention and to participate in the Reflections Program for state-level
judging. The total number of members on this date determines achievement for
Fall membership awards. Some membership award forms are due on this date.
