PTOC Elections Tonight

The fate of the PTOC will be decided tonight- May 24th.  The meeeting is scheduled for 7:00 P.M. at the West Rocks Middle School in the Library.

Bruce Kimmel, a former BOE member and Common Council member, is running for president.  Although he was a parent of a NPS student and a former PTO president of Cranbury school, he no longer has children in the school district.  For that reason, the bylaws of the PTOC would need to be changed in order for Kimmel to be elected president.  Jeffery Spahr is running for VP of Education.  Aside from the need to change the bylaws, the problem still remains that several of the PTOC positions are still open, including treasurer. 


The proposed amendment is as follows:

Eliminate Article V, Section A, Item 1: "Qualifications: All officers shall be members in good standing of a school parent organization which is a dues paying member of the Norwalk PTO Council."

Pursuant to Article XI of the existing ByLaws, for the proposed amendment to pass, the amendment must be approved by a 2/3 vote of the membership present at the May 24th meeting.  Additionally, this notice shall serve to satisfy the notice requirement set forth in Artcle XI of the existing ByLaws.
A copy of the current ByLaws may be found at the PTOC Website. A copy of this notice is posted on the PTOC homepage.
