The second Mission Statement of the
PTA is:
- To assist parents in developing the
skills they need to raise and protect their children;
Our local PTSA chapter takes this mission statement very
seriously. Our chapter budgets money for parents
to attend conferences. Our chapter has worked cooperatively
with other like minded organizations in this community to provide
education forums, workshops, and conferences. Our
chapter shares parent education materials with community
PTOs. The research is conclusive, the most
accurate predictor of a student's achievement in school is not
income or social status, but the extent to which that student's
family is involved in their children's education at school
and in the community. (1) Our members try
to provide education opportunities to parents so they feel more
comfortable being involved in the children's education.
