PTA FAQ's

What is PTSA?

PTSA stands for Parent Teacher Student Association, a school-based organization that aims to improve the school experience for children. PTSAs are made up of caregivers, teachers, staff, students, and community members all working together to support the school's efforts. This can include volunteering in classes and at community-wide events, raising money for enrichment activities and teacher grants, and helping to make the school a better place for children to learn. PTSAs also give parents a voice in decision-making and the tools to influence change at the school, district, state, and national levels.

​Why should I join?

Joining the PTSA is a great way to actively support our school, have a voice in school decisions, stay informed about school events and needs, and contribute to a positive educational environment.  PTSA isn’t just parents - we invite all caregivers, school staff, school district staff, grandparents, business leaders and neighbors to become members. PTSA membership is open to everyone and does not require having a child in a school.

​What does membership involve?

As little or as much as you like! There is no obligation to attend monthly meetings or volunteer, but we encourage you to do so when and how you are able. Things pop up all year long and we need help to make sure we are successful in delivering fun and enrichment for all Einstein Middle School Tigers.
