We don't run for office; we are slated. Our term for president is one year and the VP moves up to president.

1 year terms, limit of 2 consecutive terms in the same job. We had to override that once when our recording secretary was willing to stay for a 3rd term, and no one else wanted the job. But ususally the 2 yr limit is an effective way to bring in fresh leaders and avoid the clique syndrome.

Our officer terms are for one year. You can be elected to a position for 2 terms, and they can be consecutive. Later, if you want to run for another position, you can do that, too. :cool:

Ours are 1 year terms. Each spring we have a nomination committee and the officers positions are up for grabs again. We have no limit to the amount of terms.

Ours are one year terms with a limit of 2 consecutive years in anyone office. But the term limit can be overridden by a 2/3 vote.

We have one year terms. We have a huge turnover rate (lots of parents/students come and go especially to Mexico) so 1 year is sometimes hard. I can't imagine doing two years and with the problems with our last Pres, I'm extremely happy we don't. I know some groups don't but we will fill open positions with incoming KG parents if the opportunity arises b/c we have learned it's best to get them involved right away.

The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating-in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life. --Anne Morris
