National PTA Resources: Academic achievement has
always been paramount, and in today’s changing economy the need for
advanced skills and technical knowledge is growing. It is vital that we
show our children that we value learning, and that education is
important and will pay off in the long run as they mature. When parents
are involved in their children's educations, student achievement
improves. Student academic achievement starts with parents helping
children succeed by providing a home that encourages learning. You
support your child’s physical, mental, and emotional development. Use
these parent
resources
to help your child achieve success in school!

National PTA Takes Steps to Focus on the 'T' in PTA:
National PTA (NPTA) has created a website dedicated to teachers and those
entering the profession to access PTA membership information, resources
and e-learning opportunities. In announcing the new
“Focusing on the ‘T’ in PTA”
page, NPTA Membership Committee Chair Derrick W. Byrd stated his hope
that it “will further assist in developing and strengthening the
parent-teacher partnership that will result in higher student
achievement and PTA advocacy.”
