Q&A

President Abandoned Ship

The PTO president has not held any meetings, or handed over the books, what are some options?

Hi beahawk,
Are there other board members? Can you get in touch with those people? You can contact any board member and request a meeting.

When you say "handed over the books," I'm wondering, are you talking about an officer transition situation or do you mean generally sharing information with the members?

I'm mean that only he is holding on to the minutes and the checkbook, and the vice pres. and secretary have not been able to make he call a meeting or reconcile the checkbook.

Hi again beahawk,
If you have a situation where the president is holding onto the checkbook and refusing to hand it over, then, well, that's a problem. Do you know if there was more than one name on the bank account? Usually there is. It could even be the school principal. I'd say it's time the vice president and the secretary meet with the principal to figure out the best next steps, which should include going to the bank, finding out what names are on the account and essentially taking over from there.
