Since you said she rescinded the next day I can't imagine that you had time to put word out that the position was open to the entire population of the Parent's of the school. One or two of your friends doesn't count.

You're apology must not have been taken as sincere and she must have felt your actions didn't show that you were either. People can tell when you're being nice to be nice and when it's genuine.

According to Robert's Rules, a resignation is not accepted until it is brought to the board for a vote to accept. Until that is done, the resignation can be rescinded and would be treated as if it never happened. So, unless you brought your board together and voted to accept the resignation, and I am guessing that you didn't in that short time, and your Treasurer took the resignation back before you had a chance to do so, then it's "legal".

I am looking for feedback regarding the resignation of our treasurer. She resigned and did so with a scathing letter about the president, myself. It was totally out of left field and not expected. We have had a disagreement in the past, of which I apologized for. I believe she takes things personally when I question why our PTO does things the way they do. Nothing is meant personal- only asking questions. She is the treasurer- not the PTO.
My big question is this- our bylaws do not address a situation like this where she resigned with this very hurtful letter and then the next day rescinded her resignation. Her letter was cc'd to the board members- however only a select few received it. She addressed the letter to the principal. He is a member, however he really has no other say. At this point I am questioning what Roberts rules dictate we do. Do we take the letter as correspondence to the board meeting and then vote whether to accept it?? Then do we also bring the letter of rescintion?? As president if I accepted her letter and put word out to fill the position, is this sufficient?? At this point she also refuses to talk to me, answer my calls or emails. I am trying to keep it on a business level. However if she will not work with me, how can we conduct business?? We are both in positions that we must work with each other. I am very hurt by her letter- even the principal has expressed how inappropriate it was. I truly do not know what happened to offend her so.
So at this point where should I go with this?? Address it, ignore it?? Is her lack of working with me considered insubordination?? HELP!! I am really struggling with the right way to handle this.
Any help is MUCH appreciated !!!! :confused: :confused:
