I have a question, I am new to this PTO officer stuff, however being a member last year, there seemed to not be any scheduled PTO meeting for business operations. Everything we do goes through 1 lady in our school, volunteer coordinator, and the principal says he has final say on everything. I am not happy with the way it has been done in the past,however that is alot of the reason for my interest in being a member of the board. The elections were not voted on, if you called on a specific day and stated you wanted to be put up for nominations, then you were put on the "Ballot" (Which we didn't have). This was a big "NO NO", in my book, however the principal thinks that since it is in his school, he can call all shots, I don't believe this is right. I feel this is wrong. I honestly was not VOTED in as PRES, and neither was the other officers, it was a principal call. I don't understand why he is like he is. I want to know, how involved are most principals, can we operate this groups meetings at another location, other then the school? Who has the final say on voted issues? Please help me, I am new to this PTO Pres. stuff.
