Council Delegate

Council Delegates are representatives who voice their PTA's interests at the Council level. Each campus within CCCC of PTAs area has five representatives at Council Delegate meetings: the Principal, the PTA President, and the 3 Council Delegate. If a representative cannot attend, an alternate may be appointed, provided the Council Secretary is informed prior to each meeting. 

The goals of the delegates are to receive information and training from the council, report actions of the council to their PTA, and vote as directed by their PTA membership. 

 Each delegate has the responsibility to: 

• Attend all council delegate meetings or see that an alternate is able to attend. 
• Attend all meetings of the local PTA unit 
• Represent their PTA as a voting member of the council body.
• Participate fully in council discussions and deliberations. Each delegate (or alternate, if the delegate is not in attendance) is entitled to make motions, debate and vote at the council meeting. 
• Maintain a procedure book. 
• Take careful notes of announcements and the program at the council meeting. 
• Report announcements, important actions and the council program to their PTA membership and executive board. 
• Seek information or approval from their PTA and be ready to report and/or vote accordingly at the council meeting.
