Text Box: Continuing 60+ Years of Service! Text Box: “Dialogue with Diane” Happy New Year! This Council kicked off the year by hosting a meeting of our local unit presidents on January 11 to review important topics such as electing a nominating committee, conducting elections, discussing special purchase allocations and covering the financial matters  and requirements of our PTAs. This annual gathering affords our presidents time to focus on the duties of the office, to network and to bring questions and concerns to the council board for assistance.   Looking ahead, please note the date of CCCC's Founders' Day Dinner being held at Clear Lake City Elementary School on February 9. That is followed by this Council's annual Reflection's Reception, which displays the artistic works of our students that have advanced to the council level from the local units. The date for this event will be February 16 at the Tad Aker Event Facility in League City. February 24 - 26 brings the state convention for Texas PTA to Houston. I encourage our local PTA members to attend, as there will be workshops, speakers and a chance to see how membership meetings are run at the state level. As you well know, January brings a renewed energy level to our PTAs. Our units are busy planning spring events and looking forward to the weeks ahead. The CCCC executive board will be there for support along the way. Diane Fatora President, CCCC of PTAs

National PTA Installs Betsy Landers as President

Betsy Landers, of Memphis, Tenn., became National PTA’s® 52nd President when she was installed on Sunday, June 12th, during a special ceremony at the association’s convention in Orlando.

“I am honored to have the opportunity to expand my commitment to children and public education as the president of an association that makes a real difference in the lives of all parents and children across the country,” said Landers. Representing a long line of visionary leaders since 1897, Landers will work to continue the association’s rich legacy of engaging parents, schools, legislators, and community leaders in improving children’s health, safety, and educational success.

 

“As president-elect the last two years, I’ve worked closely with out-going president Chuck Saylors and I’m committed to working with the national staff, state PTAs and members everywhere to continue taking action for all of our nation’s kids,” said Landers.  She will lead National PTA’s Board of Directors to continue long-term strategies and priorities that benefit families nationwide.  They’ll continue to integrate PTA's core values with the association's strategic plan to speak for every child with one voice.

 

A member since 1989, Landers has held several positions from the local, state and national level, including: local PTA president, Tennessee PTA president and National PTA secretary-treasurer.  As President of Tennessee PTA, Landers led that organization in working with the State Board of Education and several legislators to write what would become the Parent Involvement Act, using the PTA National Standards as a model. Now Tennessee law, the Act mandates that all school districts in the state have a written parent involvement policy.

 

Landers is married to Ben G. Landers and has three children; Benton, Nicholas, and Mary Frances.
