Join the PTA

Why Join the PTA

Our society’s future leaders, innovators, citizens and protectors are our children, and they are given their best chance to succeed when their community unites as a powerful and effective voice for all children. Whether you’re helping a student improve their reading, working the drop-off line at the school, or just taking the simple step to join a PTA – you are making the difference in the lives of our kids!

PTA is focused on making every child’s potential a reality by strengthening education and taking a comprehensive approach to community success. And we know there is no commYOUnity without YOU – our members, our business leaders, our decision-makers. Join us to ensure that supporting our schools is about more than fundraisers, rather the work of parents, educators and community members coming together to back the future of every child!

The number one reason to join the Parent Teacher Association is to benefit your child. In doing so, you also help your school.  But there are many more PTA advantages:

    • Get Connected
      There’s no better way to know what’s happening in your school.
    • Discover Great Resources
      The PTA offers a variety of programs designed for parents as well as students.
    • Tap into a Network
      PTA functions are opportunities to meet other parents and teachers, building 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 child and all 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 PTAs play an important role by supporting building improvements through advocacy and play an important role in fundraising for curriculum based programs and social events.
    • Be a Role Model
      By becoming a PTA member, you’ll be demonstrating to your child the importance you place on education.
    • Enjoy Substantial Benefits
      Individuals and local units can take advantage of a host of benefits from PTA membership including discounts and offers from member benefits providers and sponsors, magazine subscriptions, leadership training, e-newsletters and much more.
