Working Thru Channels
This refers to the route of formal communications relied on by PTA. Typically, information, inquiries and reports are sent from unit to council (if in council), by a council to district PTA, and by a district PTA to California State PTA. That way, everyone is in the loop.
Therefore, In-Council Units (ie units in Alameda, Berkeley, Fremont, or Pleasanton), please first seek PTA finance-related support from your respective Council before requesting support at the District or State level.
Likewise, Councils and Out-of-Council Units please seek PTA finance-related support from Peralta District PTA before requesting support at the State level.
