Awards Now Online at http://15thdistrictpta.org/programs/awards/

Join us for the 15th District PTA School Board Candidate Forum. This is a great way to make an informed decision on who you should vote for in November.

Admittance will first be given to those who register; any additional admittance will be based on space allowance.  We encourage you to only plan to attend the time slot for the District in which you are eligible to vote, to help with space constraints.  In the auditorium we will not allow any partisan attire, literature, or signs. 

Reflections are due online by October 19th. We have scheduled an additional training to focus on the uploading of artwork on October 13th.

PTA/PTSA Leaders,

As most of you know over the weekend severe storms devastated the Western part of Kentucky. Kentucky PTA spent Saturday reaching out to local leaders in that area to ensure that everyone was safe. We asked about any needs they might have. As you can imagine a lot of people were still in shock and disbelief Saturday morning so we are sure that those needs will become clearer in the upcoming days.

Watching the news and social media we are so grateful for the way Kentuckians have jumped in to help the families of Western Kentucky with collections around the state. Please continue to keep Western Kentucky families in your thoughts over the next few weeks and months as they try to rebuild. Kentucky PTA will help in any way we can.

Toy Drive

Kentucky PTA is asking for our local units, if they are so inclined, to do a TOY drive in your area, with all the gifts and toys going to the families in Western Kentucky. We have talked to officials, and they are good on clothing and items to keep them warm. We also know that a lot of different organizations are doing water donations. Let’s focus on giving some sense of normalcy to the children of Western Kentucky as we can right before the holiday season.

This is an optional TOY drive, while we WOULD love you to participate, you are in no ways required.

If you decided to participate, please ask for new or gently used toys and gifts for all age groups. Feel free to think outside the box. Example: Hoodies would be a great gift, as the majority of teens would prefer hoodies to any coat. coloring books, books etc.

On top of that, we have been made aware of these specific needs. Totes for families to store their items in, batteries and flashlights have made the top of every list.

Kentucky PTA would also like to include small school supplies items such as paper, crayons, markers, folders so that they can be sent directly to schools so that if any family has lost school supplies that isn’t a need they have to worry about coming back in January.

Monetary Donations

If someone would like to make a monetary contribution, please refer them to either https://secure.kentucky.gov/formservices/Finance/WKYRelief or the American Red Cross. Please do not take in donations, as we are still restricted on who we can donate to.

If you would like to use some of your budget to buy items on behalf of your PTA/PTSA, it depends on how the line items are listed- please contact the Kentucky PTA office for clarification so we can find a line item that would work.

Contacts and drop off.

Kentucky PTA will ensure that all donations are shipped to those in need in Western Kentucky.

Your point of contact depends on your district.

15th District- Your drop off location will go out in a separate email; we are still working on the logistics. You can contact Sienna Newman at [email protected]

16th District- Your drop off location will go out in a separate email, we are still working on the logistics. Your point of contact will be Susan Voglesong at [email protected].

4th, 18th and 9th – Point of Contact Victoria Tucker, she will work with you to pick up items. She can be reached at [email protected]

All other districts please contact Jenna Jennings ([email protected]) or Victoria Tucker ([email protected]) to make arrangements for us to do pickups.

We only have a short amount of turnaround time so if you are wanting to participate, please contact the Kentucky PTA office so we can arrange to drop off/pick up before 5 PM on Thursday. Friday/Saturday we will be picking up items and Sunday/Monday have it shipped out.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Kentucky PTA office at 502-226-6607, or Jenna via email at [email protected] or Victoria Tucker, Emergency Response Chair at [email protected]

Thanks for all you do,

Kathy Smiley,

The 15th District PTA votes to support the JCPS Tax Increase that will be on the ballot on November. See our page for more details. http://15thdistrictpta.org/jcps-proposed-tax-increase/

Dear Louisville PTA/PTSA Leaders,

Kentucky PTA is aware of the newspaper articles in the Courier Journal that was published last week about PTA.   Kentucky PTA will be making a statement; however, we want to make sure that our attorney as well as National PTA has time to review it and offer changes/suggestions.    

In the meantime, Kentucky PTA along with 15^th District PTA, wants you to understand that we support each and every one of you.   We see the amazing things that you are doing at your school and across the city.   We see and appreciate all your hard work and dedication.  It does not go unnoticed.  Please do not let anyone bring you down.

There is a saying that “Data is like a bikini, what is shown, is revealing, what isn’t shown, is vital”.  The “data” doesn’t show the amazing things that was done.  The article didn’t know the struggle some PTA’s had, or the advocacy that was done at all schools.  It does not show the events that were held for little to no cost to the PTA and or their families.   We see and know what isn’t shown with the data. 

We have also been notified of an open records request asking for last year’s original budget (what you submitted to your general membership to approve, not your actual vs budgeted), officers list, and this year’s financial review.   All of them should have already been turned into your principal as they are required by KDE, yearly.   If you haven’t already, please do so at this time.  Kentucky PTA has an emergency board meeting schedule to discuss this concern further.  

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to your district leadership, or you are always welcome to contact the Kentucky PTA at [email protected] or 502-226-6607. 

Always keep in mind that there is no wrong way to PTA, and this year is going to look different from years in the past.  Don’t get discouraged.   We are all here to support you.

Dear PTA Leaders,

We hope this letter finds everyone doing well and staying healthy.  As we all try to navigate this uncharted waters, and learn our new “normal” for the time being, the 15^th District PTA board wanted to share with you some of the resources that have been shared over the past couple weeks. We thought it might be helpful to place as many resources in one location.   

If we can help you in anyway, please feel free to reach out to us, we are happy to help if we can.  We all in this together.   Please share these resources with your families in your PTA!

Sincerely,

15^th District PTA

MEMO: Kentucky State PTA Guidelines During the Coronavirus Pandemic

TO: Kentucky PTA Unit, District PTA Leaders

FROM: President Heather Wampler

We know that many of you have concerns about how to conduct PTA/PTSA meetings given the recent COVID-19 coronavirus  outbreak. At Kentucky State PTA (KY PTA), we appreciate your concern about keeping all of our PTA/PTSA families and members safe during this time. As we continue to monitor the situation, we have been asked what guidance we can provide regarding PTA/PTSA meetings and events.

Guidance on Executive Board/Board of Manager/Committee Meetings

Our bylaws allow for Executive Board/Board of Manager/Committee meetings to be held via telephone or video conferencing as long as all of the members are able to hear each other.  If a member cannot hear or be heard then that meeting could be sanctioned invalid.     

Guidance on Association General Meetings

All local unit PTA/PTSAs in Kentucky should not hold an in-person General PTA/PTSA meeting or PTA/PTSA event while your school district is closed.  We understand that you may not meet your quota of General Meetings for the year, however you should have had the majority of your meetings by this point. 

Spending 

Please pay any outstanding bills that are due or past due.  At this time with school not being in session we ask that you hold off on any spending for the remainder of the time that school districts are being closed.  IF you need to make a purchase please make sure it is in your budget and had previously been approved by your General Membership.  We ask that you be responsible please.

PTA or PTSA Election

Elections are not allowed to be conducted via telephone, video conferencing absentee ballots thru the mail or any online voting system; this needs to be done at a in person meeting which cannot happen at this time.  Positions cannot be appointed by the current board or school administration.  They must be elected by the General Membership.  Please note if this is NOT an election year for your PTA/PTSA because you will be serving the 2^nd year of your 2-year term, you will not need to hold an election.  The Kentucky PTA Executive Board is giving an extension for schools that bylaws state elections were to be held in March, April, May, or June 2020; they have until September 30, 2020 to hold their election to still comply with the bylaws.  You must follow everything with the nominating committee and including your entire school membership.   

SBDM Election 

Kentucky Department Education (KDE) will be giving us direction for the process for parent elections; if we do not return to school by the time your bylaws (SBDM bylaws) state they are to be held.

Financial Reviews

The due date for Financial Reviews is July 15, 2020 for the 2019-2020 school year.  However, with school being potentially closed we request that when you can safely return to your school building as instructed by your school district, local public health, and get the information needed to complete the review.  We will monitor this and continue to give more instruction. 

Please continue to work with your local public health officials to determine when the outbreak has ended in your local community and when the community is able to safely have meetings and events.

Your personal health and the health of your family is important.

Convention

Kentucky State PTA Convention scheduled July 17-19, 2020 has been canceled in its entirety and will not be rescheduled for 2020.   In light of canceling this important event that offers so much training we will begin to work on training opportunities and share with you details within the upcoming months.  Please remember we are always here to help your PTA/PTSA. 

Sincerely,

Heather Wampler                                                       

President of Kentucky PTA   

We have created a page with e-learning resources for our families. This have everything from online programs, reading programs, STEM, Art, Online Access, and even virtual tours of museum, zoos, and aquariums.

15th District PTA wants to make sure that all of our families are safe during this time. We are cancelling this Saturday’s (3/14/20) event at the Main Library. We will keep you informed if the other events will be cancelled as soon as we know. Please keep you and your families safe.

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) helps families with their nutritional needs such as food.  This program is wonderful but does have limitation.  SNAP does not cover any hygiene products such as soap. 

15^th District PTA has decided to add this to our offering for our families that come to our Clothing Assistance Program (CAP).  While this seems like a small thing to offer – it will be a big help to our families. 

If you would like to donate new soap, gently used clothing, volunteer, or give a monetary donation to CAP please see our website at 15thdistrictpta.org/CAP

15th District PTA is looking for 2 parent volunteers to be on the Selection Committee of the Racial Equity Policy.  The selection committee will be responsible for developing and conducting an application process to establish the membership of the Advisory Council for the Equity and Race Advisory Council.  This will be a short-term commitment but a highly important one.  The meeting times are not scheduled as of yet and the two parents chosen will need to meet with the other 8 other members – so a flexible schedule is advised.  Meetings will start in June.

Please click on the nomination form link below to fill out the nomination form.

Nomination Form

15th District Parent Teacher Association (PTA) believes that every voice should be heard when we talk about education. We also believe that the strongest voices are the ones who are directly involved in the education process: teachers, administrators, students, and parents. These voices are being threatened with a takeover by the state of Kentucky. When the audit began, it was clear that changes were needed at Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS), but since that time significant changes have occurred. JCPS has shown it is willing to make changes that will improve our school system. A state takeover would not only hurt the momentum of these changes within the district but also silence the input of community stakeholders. 15th District PTA supports JCPS and stands united with JCPS against a state takeover.
