Why Join the PTSA What is PTSA? Why join PTSA? The number one reason to join the Parent Teacher Student Association is to benefit your child. In doing so, you also help your school. But there are many more PTSA advantages: · Get Connected. There’s no better way to know what’s happening in your school. · Discover Great Resources. The PTSA offers a variety of programs designed for parents as well as students. · Tap into a Network. PTSA 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 PTSA, you put your skills and hobbies to use for a noble cause—your child and all children in the community. · Speak Up. PTSA can be a way for you to more effectively suggest change at your child’s school. · Witness Improvement.

Member Benefit Providers 2011-2012 Member Benefits Providers Because of the size of our organization, PTSA is able to partner with businesses and negotiate special discounts, fundraising opportunities, and other valuable benefits exclusively for PTSA members. When you make purchases from these companies, not only will you receive a discount, but National PTA will also receive a percentage of royalties from the sale. PTSA is working diligently to establish relationships with additional Member Benefit Providers to provide you with even more exclusive benefits in other categories.
