Membership “Virtual” Workgroup - Join by emailing connie@umd.edu
• Countywide forum on membership with the goal of reaching 57,000 this year and 60,000 members next year
• Focus on reaching out to groups that are often underrepresented in Montgomery County PTAs
• Discussions via email and other online tools
• Workgroup members may volunteer to hold/attend meetings in their clusters
Branding & Continued Membership Drives:
• Encourage your local PTAs to publicize all they do for the school. (Professionally printed signs help!)
• Encourage your local PTAs to continue their membership drives throughout the year
• Membership tips can be found at http://www.pta.org/members/content.cfm?ItemNumber=3107
For more information contact Connie DiJohnson, MCCPTA Membership & Engagement Chair
How to get those membership hold outs? Adopt these “membership teasers” for you PTA/PTSA:

MEMBERSHIP DUES. And, don't forget, you don't actually have members until your PT(S)A has paid dues for them to Maryland PTA--they will send a monthly invoice--and MCCPTA. At MCCPTA, we don't send an invoice, but ask that you download THIS FORM and send in your payments monthly. TIP: Pay Maryland PTA ($3.75 per member) and MCCPTA ($1 per member) at the same time; it makes remembering much easier!

What does your PTA do or WANT to do for your students? Let people know! Hoover Middle School used Shakespeare quotes to promote the HMS PTA-funded Shakespeare Program.
Facebook is growing as a way to get your message out, build your membership, and help with the efforts of your PTA... and it's very user friendly. Hoover PTA used their school sign, website, and Facebook page to get their membership theme out. Here are some PTAs/PTSAs using Facebook: Hoover MS PTA, Watkins Mill HS PTSA, Cabin John MS PTSA, Poolesville HS PTSA

MCCPTA Membership Awards,
2012-2013
MCCPTA recognizes local PTA/PTSAs that are building and sustaining membership with three categories of awards. Award winners will be announced at our Presidents and Principals Dinner in May 2013; winners also will receive certificates. Membership totals for PTA fiscal year 2012-2013 will be based on MCCPTA records as of March 31, 2013.
NOTE: Should there be a discrepancy between Maryland PTA and MCCPTA membership numbers for the current year, PTA/PTSAs eligible for MCCPTA awards will be notified and asked to remit any dues owed to MCCPTA by May 1, 2013. Failure to remit payment to MCCPTA may result in disqualification.
GROW IT! These awards will recognize PTA/PTSAs for their year-on-year growth in percentage terms.
Bronze: Membership growth up to 5%
Silver: Membership growth between 5% and up to 24%
Gold: Membership growth between 25% and up to 49%
Platinum: Membership growth between 50% and up to 99%
Diamond: Membership growth 100% and over
BUILD AND SUSTAIN IT! These awards will be given to the three PTA/PTSAs from each school category--elementary, middle, and high school--that have the largest membership in absolute terms.
ENGAGE IT! These awards will be given to the PTA/PTSA from each school category--elementary, middle, and high school--that has the greatest PTA member to student number ratio. That ratio serves as a proxy for community involvement.
