What does PTA do on a national level?
Not all decisions affecting a child’s school happen at the local level. That’s why, from day one, it has been the mission of National PTA to address the needs of all children. Children in every school. In every state. Across the entire nation. Even if you’re not a member, PTA still works for your child. We have the vision and determination to push for national education policies. We have been a driving force in establishing school lunch programs, after-school care, immunization programs, school bus safety, and television rating standards, before they became law. Today our government relations professionals are addressing the importance of parent involvement, safe and nurturing environments, and support for public schools. And together, with your membership, we can do even more.
