In the U.S. parent-teacher associations (PTAs) and parent-teacher organizations (PTOs) exist as the outlet for parent participation at most public and private K-8 schools. At the local level, the goal of all parent-teacher groups is to support their schools, encourage parent involvement, support teachers, and organize family events.

We want to form a PTA for CME. It should help create more opportunities for RP for CD kids and families, and should create interaction between families and some of Hathian's services (PD, businesses, social services, hospital, etc.!).

If you are a parent and interested in running for the PTA elections, please let me know! 🙂
