  • Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) Membership and Guidelines

  • Membership in the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) is voluntary. Its primary purpose is to serve the school and its students.

  • The PTA accepts complaints and suggestions in writing and submits them to the school administration through the PTA President.

  • The PTA actively participates in designated social responsibility projects on behalf of the school.

  • Decisions made during meetings are formalized with the participation of the majority. The PTA can only implement decisions after receiving approval from the school administration.

  • Being a PTA member does not grant unrestricted access within the school. Members are only allowed on school premises for tasks such as monitoring the cafeteria, dining hall, restrooms, or other duties assigned by the school administration.

  • During parent-teacher meetings, PTA members use the same meeting rooms as other parents.

  • The PTA cannot directly resolve issues; it directs other parents to the school administration as the proper authority for problem resolution.

  • The PTA’s goal is to act in the best interest of the school and students. Any identified issue should be reported in writing to the school administration via the PTA President.

  • PTA members are not authorized to disclose discussions or explanations from meetings to others.

  • If a PTA member is verbally informed of an issue, they must refer the parent to the relevant teacher, guidance unit, or school administrator without offering personal opinions.

  • PTA members provide necessary support to the administrator assigned by the school for social responsibility projects and actively participate in official ceremonies and events.

  • PTA elections are held annually by open voting no later than the end of October. Election procedures are carried out in accordance with the regulation dated February 9, 2012, numbered 28199.
