What Decisions Does the PTA Make?

Hi! My name is Leslie and I am from Tampa, Florida and on behalf of Expert Village, this is all about the PTA. Chapter10: Do local PTA's make their own decisions? Each unit of the PTA selects the programs and activities that it will take to undertake to address the needs of its local school and children. While PTA's National Office creates many successful programs for local units to use, there are no PTA mandated programs. State and National PTA provide support to help the local PTA succeed. For example, when working on local issues such as changing an intersection to make it safer, upgrading school water taps to move the threat of lead contamination, enhancing reading standards or other school or district concerns, National PTA is a welcome resource. The National PTA can advise local PTA's on the best practices observed, issues surrounding the problem and the outcome as well as provide them contact information for additional details.
