Business Sessions
Power-Packed Workshops, Meetings, and Roundtables
At this year’s Indiana PTA Convention, our business sessions will be a key part of our time together as we shape the future of our organization. Delegates will vote on proposed amendments to our bylaws, elect new members to the Indiana PTA Board of Directors, and consider a timely new resolution focused on the unfortunate child drownings in retention/detention ponds. These decisions are vital to our mission and your participation matters. Please review the linked documents to learn more about each item and come prepared to make your voice heard!
Get ready for an action-packed lineup or presenters and speakers!
