More than 30 years of research has proven that children and schools perform better when parents are involved in education at home and at school:

• Kids have higher grades and test scores.
• Kids have better social skills and behavior.
• School quality improves.
• Teacher morale increases.
• A school's reputation is better.   

And, parents benefit too! Joining the PTA and volunteering:

• Is a great way to get to know teachers & the school
• Allows you to influence over how fundraising dollars are spent.
• Connects you to parents who, like you, are committed to your school.

Finally, your membership fees help support school programs and events!
