Your objective is clear—PTA’s mission is: to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children. Aim to Lead the PTA Way! Be Welcoming. Include and value all families, school staff and community members in a way that values their unique strengths, abilities and interests. PTA leaders are intentional, authentic and inclusive. Communicate effectively. Effective communicators listen and try to understand the perspectives of community families, teachers, administrators and students. Show how your PTA is supporting student success and improving the school or community. Use a variety of methods—social media, e-newsletters and most importantly, personal outreach. Always welcome feedback and consider how it can strengthen your efforts. Focus on student success. Ask parents, students, teachers, administrators what they are most concerned about as it relates to student achievement and well-being. Then design a PTA plan that shows how you are focused on those issues. Speak Up for Every Child. Identify and advocate for specific school improvements. Serve as a resource for parents, helping them navigate the school and community and speak up for every student’s unique needs. Connect your members to PTA’s advocacy efforts in your school district, state and on Capitol Hill. Share Power. Effective PTA leaders share power and grow the volunteer pool with different perspectives; prevent conflicts by always focusing on what’s best for the children. Collaborate. Be the link between families and resources in your school and community. Seek to create school and community pride, which creates the village that parents and teachers need to best support their students |
