PTSO Positions – General Info

Meetings for 2019/20 are from 5:30P to 6:00P at the school on Aug-16, Sep-10, Oct-08, Dec-10, Jan-14, Mar-10, Apr-14, May-12, and June-02.

MTCHS PTSO supports only 200 students and 19 staff – so as a Board member your contributions of time and effort will be far less than a middle school or elementary school PTSO/PTA Board BUT just as rewarding!

The responsibilities of the following roles are very minimal and training will be provided – usual time required outside of meetings 1.0 to 2.0 hrs monthly

Secretary –  Document meeting minutes
Treasurer – Document/present the budget, Write checks, Provide checking/savings status
Event Coordinator – Add/modify online event information using the PTSO’s Sign-up Genius account (very user friendly)
Web Coordinator – Upload final agendas, minutes and event reports to PTSO webpage (school provides technical support)

PTSO

The PTSO is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization comprised of parents, teachers, and students at Meridian Technical Charter High School, whose primary goal is to provide financial and volunteer support for the MTCHS community, in alignment with MTCHS’s Vision and Mission statements.

PTSO Donations
The PTSO only receives funding from parents, primarily during registration, which ensures we can fund events that occur early in the school year. You can choose to make a General donation with a suggested minimum of $25, or you can choose to be a Dragon! Red Dragon donors donate a minimum of $100 to ensure student activities and events are funded – Gold Dragon donors donate a minimum of $200 to ensure student activities and events, as well as student scholarships are funded. Thank you so much for your contribution!

School Fundraising
Here are two great ways to raise funds that go directly to the school! Target’s Take Charge of Education Program MTCHS will receive a percentage of each Target credit/debit card or Visa credit card purchase in the form of a cash donation.
