Thanks to the efforts of our school PTA leaders and membership volunteers, our units are growing
their PTA membership. Our District had an increase of 608 members from 15-16 to 16-17 and we are aiming to increase our membership numbers by 10%, that’s 3677 new members over the next two years. We have incentives but we need your help by talking to your friends, neighbors, teachers, other parents about PTA.
More PTA members directly translate to a larger voice for our children when it comes to local, state and national advocacy.
When parents ask, “Why should I join PTA?” let them know in the words of San Ramon Valley Council’s VP of Membership, Rumi Varma, that “Your PTA membership supports student success in your own community as well as across the state and the nation. Simply joining PTA shows you’re invested in all children’s futures.”
When teachers ask why they should join PTA let them know that PTA is the oldest and largest child advocacy organization in the US. PTA advocates for their classrooms at the local, state and national level. Find out what PTA has achieved over the last 120 years at http://capta.org/about/our-mission/whatwestandfor/
