Voting Delegate Authorization
The deadline for registration has passed.
Deadline to register: April 12 at 12 PM (noon).
Deadline for local PTAs and Councils to verify delegates: April 18 at 12 PM (noon).
Voting delegates may self-declare their delegate status on the online event registration form. This is as simple as checking a box on the online form. But before you register, please note:
- You should review your PTA’s standing rules to understand how your PTA’s voting delegates are selected: are delegates approved at a board of directors meeting or are they approved at a membership meeting?
- Discuss with your president the process and timing of these approvals so you can plan when to register.
- Your president will receive an email on April 12 with a list of self-declared delegates for your PTA. Your president will then confirm the list of delegates and email support@wastatepta.org with any changes by noon on April 18. No response will be treated as implicit confirmation of the list.
Alternatively, instead of each individual registering themselves, a local PTA or council may register their attendees and designate delegates during this process.
Attendees registered to attend in-person or remotely and designated as voting delegates by their local PTA or council may participate in debate and voting during general sessions.
Delegates must be a paid member of the PTA. The PTA must be in good standing.
Voting Delegate Responsibilities
You are voting on behalf of your local PTA/PTSA or council. Presentations to educate delegates will take place both prior to (on April 18 at 6:30pm) and during the annual business meeting on April 29.
