About Presidents Council

Presidents' Councils are made up of the PA/PTA/PTO Presidents (or their designated representatives) of each of the PA/PTA/PTOs within a given jurisdiction and are intended to support their constituent PA/PTA/PTOs.

Chancellor’s Regulation A-660 (CR A-660) requires the establishment of a Presidents’ Council for each of the 32 community school districts, each of the five borough’s group of high schools, and District 75 (citywide special education). While direct involvement in Presidents’ Councils is limited to PA/PTA presidents (or their designated representatives), meetings are open to the general public.

Presidents’ Councils are designed to support the PA/PTA/PTOs within their districts at the district level by:

assisting in the establishment of new PA/PTAs and the re-establishment of defunct PA/PTAs
providing guidance to their constituent PA/PTAs in technical areas such as bylaws and elections
identifying and promoting district-wide interests

The President of Presidents' Council serves as a member of the DLT, District Leadership Team at the District Level and on CPAC, and the Chancellor's Parent Advisory Council at the Citywide level. In the case of Co-Presidents, one serves on the DLT while the other serves on CPAC.
