The term is two years for 6th/7th-grade parents or one-year for 8th-grade parents; the committee meets one Wednesday a month after school. To get on the ballot you need only submit a brief bio (<250 words). Elections will take place first thing next school year; check the Lincoln List in late August for details: http://lincolnptsa.site-ym.com/news/.
