Why Join PTA? The number one reason to join the PTA
is to benefit your child. In doing so, you also help your school. But there
are many more advantages. Here are just a few: (1) Get Connected. There's
no better way to know what's happening in your school. (2) Discover Great
Resources. The PTA offers a variety of programs designed for parents as
well as students. (3) Tap into a Network. Parenting is not easy - it helps
to share ideas, concerns and experiences with other parents and educators
in the community. PTA functions are opportunities to meet other parents and
teachers, building rapport and discussing issues that are on your mind. (4)
Watch Yourself Grow. By volunteering with your PTA, you gain valuable
experiences. It's an opportunity to put your skills and hobbies to good use
for a good cause--your child and all children in the community. (5) Speak
Up. Because the PTA is a forum for exchanging ideas, you are encouraged to
make suggestions. PTA can be a way for you to more effectively suggest
change at your child's school. (6) 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 in fundraising to
provide building improvements, curriculum-based programs and social events
- all vital to a school's success. (7) Be A Role Model. By becoming a PTA
member, you'll be demonstrating to your child the importance you place on
education. JOIN US TODAY!
