Officers in PTO

I am a WELS member serving on the church council and department of education for our elementary school (K thru 8). We have a parent/teacher organization (PTO) that thinks it is OK to elect a non-member as an officer in the PTO. Is this OK, or is it against our church fellowship doctrine?

You would do well to find out if your PTO has a constitution and bylaws, or other documents, which provide guidance and direction for the organization. Such documents will spell out the qualifications and responsibilities of the organization’s officers. Information from those sources will explain if and how non-members are able to serve in the capacity you inquired. As your pastor is the best local resource for your question, you will want to speak with him as well.
