Membership Chairman: Rosemarie Ochoa
PTA Membership/Join
PTA is a grassroots organization made up of parents, teachers and others
around the state who have an interest in children, families and schools. PTA
membership is as diverse as Texas is in cultures, education levels and
parenting skills. By joining PTA, a member becomes part of the largest child
advocacy organization in the state with more than 600,000 members across Texas.
Join Us!
Membership is open to anyone concerned with the education, health and welfare
of children and youth. Student members for a PTSA must be in the 9th grade or
above.
Get Involved
Get involved for your children and for your community. Studies have shown that
membership in PTA provides your child and other children around you with a
greater chance of achieving in school. As a PTA member, you are more likely to
be an informed, involved parent. Learn ways to keep children safe and involved
in school. PTA is the place to gain that knowledge.
Contact your Local PTA or Texas PTA at 800-TALK-PTA for more information.
Benefits
PTA provides opportunities to meet with others who have the same interests as
you. By sharing common concerns, you will feel more empowered. Being part of
PTA connects families and schools and results in parental support and makes
school involvement easier. PTA also provides educational opportunities. From
local-level parent education meetings to the Texas PTA Annual Convention, PTA
encourages learning and the sharing of accomplishments, interests and
concerns. Ultimately, PTA provides the opportunity to serve, to volunteer and
to contribute to the welfare of all children, because children represent our
future. PTA will introduce you to a great variety of new activities and
opportunities to share your special talents. PTA will give you opportunity,
not only to impact your local community, but to have input in major
legislative and policy issues affecting children throughout the state.
