PTA has been active in Connecticut for 100 years, and while times have changed, children still need advocates. That is what all members are, advocates to improve the life of children. Parents, and community members, are always welcome to help out at PTA functions. The calls usually go out for volunteers in September, however, there is always a need for willing volunteers. Parent involvement recognizes that the child's first teacher was the parents and this should not change when they arrive at school.
Children win, gain higher self-esteem, parents win, the teachers win.
Everyday there are changes happening in our Federal Government and State Capitols regarding the future of Public schools throughout the United States that does not always appear in the media.
