WHY PTA?
- PTAs get results. More than 85 rigorous research studies conducted over 30 years show that kids do better when parents are involved. Grades are higher. Test scores improve. Attendance increases.
- PTAs keep parents informed. Involved parents can understand the challenges schools face and become part of the solution. PTAs support education through active participation and advocacy.
- PTAs improve children's well-being. PTAs focus on what students need to be successful in their learning, including proper nutrition and safe, healthy environments.
- PTAs can help schools fulfill parent involvement requirements in the law known as No Child Left Behind (NCLB). Why? Because PTA's definition of parent involvement is the definition used in NCLB. Getting involved in PTA is the best way to organize parent involvement.
- PTAs benefit everyone. Strong schools mean stronger communities. PTA membership is open to anyone concerned with the education, health, and welfare of children.
