When you join the McAuliffe PTSA, you become part of the Washington State PTA (WSPTA) and National PTA, nonprofit membership associations that advocate on behalf of all children. Together we are a powerful voice and a relevant resource for families and communities. According to the WSPTA, studies have proven that membership in a PTA provides your child and other children around you with a greater chance of achieving in school. As a member, you are more likely to be an informed, involved parent. Check out its website (www.wastatepta.org) for the many things it has accomplished!
Benefits of being a member As a member, you are eligible to receive discounts from many nationwide businesses. Each family also receives a free McAuliffe student directory, which is published and distributed by late November. Why Support the PTSA? The PTSA provides funding for things such as extra classroom supplies, Stars Reading Program, Accelerated Reading Program, Art Start, ASB, assemblies, visiting authors, field day and field trips. The PTSA grants money to the school to pay for production materials such as paper and ink. Every year, the PTSA grants money to teachers so they can refresh their classroom with new supplies such as books, special paper, white boards, markers and prizes. Last year we were able to provide many things that were on our teachers’ wish lists, thanks to you! The items they received enhanced each student’s experience and education in the classroom. Members are not required to volunteer. Activating Your National PTA BenefitsNational PTA has recently updated its policy making this super EASY! Simply register here with your name, email and address. Next, start taking advantage of your benefits!
