About PTA County Councils
About PTA County Councils
A PTA council consists of local PTAs within a defined area. The main purpose of a PTA council is to promote the welfare of children and youth.
A PTA council’s role is to inform, advise, guide, instruct, provide customer service, encourage the leaders of local PTAs, and be responsive to their needs for conferences, leadership training, and coordination of efforts of the member PTAs. If your PTA is part of a council, the council president is available to support, coordinate, facilitate, and serve the needs of your PTA.
Units in good standing (having met all annual compliance requirements) may participate in County Council Meetings, Programs, Grants and Awards/Recognition Ceremonies. MCCPTAs also conducts events and programs to engage the entire community.
For local unit assistance, please contact County Council President.
For more than 100 years, National Parent Teacher Association (National PTA®) has worked toward bettering the lives of every child in education, health and safety. Founded in 1897 as the National Congress of Mothers by Alice McLellan Birney and Phoebe Apperson Hearst, National PTA is a powerful voice for all children, a relevant resource for families and communities, and a strong advocate for public education.
Today’s PTA is a network of millions of families, students, teachers, administrators, and business and community leaders devoted to the educational success of children and the promotion of family engagement in schools.
