The Cougar Ridge Elementary PTSA Executive Board consists of elected members. Elections take place in the spring, and each elected position is limited to a two-year term. The Executive Board meets on a monthly basis in addition to the monthly General Membership meetings.
Board members oversee a group of committee chairs to ensure their needs are met when planning and executing their program or event and to help secure or recruit additional funds or resources as needed.
All positions are volunteer-based! We love our volunteers and thank them for their service to the PTSA, our school and students!
