PTO set-up

Hi All!  How's it going this year in the world of PTO? Busy as always?  Our PTO (and all the school's PTOs in our area) were notified by our district last year that we would no longer be covered by the district for liability or bank accounts because of district cuts. After quite a bit of scrambling we've decided to register as a non-profit organization. Have any of your groups faced anything similar? How did you handle it?

hmm I'm not sure. Our PTO has always had our own bank account. We've always been separate from the school. Sorry I'm no help. I do think it's wonderful being separate though. That way no one but PTO Officers have a legal say in what you do with PTO money including the principal.

And yeah busy would be an understatement. I thought having 6 officers would be helpful but all it is is 6 times the pain in the butt lol =(
