WHAT IS A PTA?

PTA — Parent Teacher Association — is a grassroots organization of parents, teachers, and others around the state who have an interest in the well-being of children, families, and schools. PTA members are advocates for all children in our neighborhoods, throughout the state, and on Capitol Hill. By joining a local PTA, a member automatically becomes a part of the largest child-advocacy organization in the state and nation.

PTAs work for children. PTAs meet together, study problems, support teachers, volunteer in schools, attend workshops on parenting and become informed on issues regarding children and youth. As a result, PTA members become better parents, teachers, and citizens.

KANSAS PTA VALUES

Every child’s potential is a reality.

To make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.

It is our purpose, along with the National PTA, to promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, places of worship and through the community. We aim to raise the standards of home life and advocate for laws that further the education, physical and mental health, welfare and safety of children and youth. We promote the collaboration and engagement of families and educators in the education of children and youth while engaging the public in united efforts to secure the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and social well-being of all children and youth. Finally, it is our purpose to advocate for fiscal responsibility regarding public tax dollars in public education funding.
