3. Articulate the distinct roles and responsibilities of PTA officers and members;
4. Streamline the processes for managing PTA affairs at the different levels which include, among others: (a) election of PTA Officers consisting of parent/guardian-and teacher-members under different modalities; (b) requirements and privileges bestowed upon recognized PTAs; (c) conduct of General Assembly and other meetings; (d) undertaking of fundraising projects; and (e) financial management and transparency of PTA operations and the concomitant accountability of its officers; and
