WHY JOIN THE PTA? 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 from pta.org:



  • Get Connected There’s no better way to know what’s happening in your school.


  • Speak Up PTA can be a way for you to more effectively suggest change at your child’s school and vote at membership meetings.


  • Discover Great Resources: The PTA offers a variety of programs designed for parents as well as students.


  • 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.


  • 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.
