A "Plan of Work" refers to the strategic roadmap outlining the goals, initiatives, or activities that a Standing or Special Committee will undertake throughout the school year.

Per our bylaws, each Standing Committee Chair and Special Committee Chair should present a plan of work to the board of directors for approval.

Please email the PTA President if you have questions about a "Plan of Work." 

Our number one priority is safety. Out of abundance of caution, the Sternberger PTA hires an off-duty police officer to be on-site during our after-school events. 

If you are part of a committee and need to put in a request for an off-duty police officer, you can email the PTA President for more information about this process.
