This position is allowed as part of the TX PTA guidelines, and Bylaws changes are consistent TX PTA guidelines. 2) Increase PTA Dues by $4: Consistent with other PTA's and to address rising costs, increase all levels of PTA Dues by $4.00. Purefoy PTA does not keep 100% of PTA Dues; a portion is paid to the State and National PTA as part of our PTA affiliation. Standing Rules Changes: 1.
