What is the PTA? Why Join the PTA?

The number one reason to join the Parent Teacher Association is to Benefit your Child(ren). In doing so, you also help your school. There are many more PTA advantages:

Get Connected. There is no better way to know what is happening in your school.

Tap into a Network. PTA functions are opportunities to meet other parents and teachers, building a rapport and discussing issues that are on your mind. You can share ideas, concerns, and experiences.

Watch yourself Grow. By volunteering with your PTA, you put your skills  and hobbies to use for a noble cause – your children and all the children in the community.

SPEAK UP. PTA can be a way for you to more effectively suggest change at your child’s school.

WITNESS IMPROVEMENT. By getting involved at your child’s school you’ll be part of the solution, helping make positive changes. Local PTA’s play an important role in fund raising to provide building improvements, curriculum-based programs, and social events.

ENJOY SUBSTANTIAL BENEFITS. Individuals and local units can take advantage of a host of benefits from PTA membership including discounts and offers from providers and sponsors, magazine subscriptions, leadership training, e-newsletters and much more.

For less than 3 cents a day, you can become a PTA member, joining more than 5 million other people who share your interest in issues affecting children. Everyone – parents, educators, students and other citizens active in their schools and communities is invited to join our non-profit Parent Teacher Association.
