The latest item to scratch off my list:
be a room parent
Because I can’t leave well-enough alone, I went a step further and decided to take on the role of PTA President at my daughters’ schools (it’s 1 PTA for both schools) at the end of last summer. What a learning experience it’s been. If not for the simple purpose of opening my eyes to just how much work your PTA leaders have to do for even the most basic programs and to simply keep the thing up and running.
Also? If your school has a PTA or PTO, please volunteer for even a teeny tiny project or activity if you can. I sound like a PSA, but seriously, do it.
Good for you! I’ll be stepping down in May after my second year at PTA pres. I’m nervous about finding a replacement, though….but two years is enough as the leader!!
wow – 2 years, Aimee! that’s impressive!!
