Why Join PTA

The PTA is an advocacy group for children & families here at Sharon.  The
number one reason to join the Parent Teacher Association is to benefit
your child.  In doing so, you also help our school.  There are many more
advantages to joining PTA.  Here are just a few:

Get Connected. There’s no better way to know what’s happening in your
school.

Discover Great Resources. The PTA offers a variety of programs
designed for parents as well as students.

Tap into a Network. Parenting is not easy. Our PTA Network is valuable
for sharing ideas, concerns and experiences with other parents and
educators. PTA functions are great events to meet other parents and
teachers, build rapport and discuss issues to help strengthen our families
and community.

Watch Yourself Grow. By volunteering with your PTA, you gain valuable
experience. Volunteering is an opportunity to put your skills and hobbies to
good use for a good cause – for your child & all children in the community.

Speak Up. Because the PTA is a forum for exchanging ideas, you are
encouraged to make suggestions. PTA is just one way for you to more
effectively support important decisions at your child’s school.

Witness Improvement. By getting involved at your child’s school you’ll be
part of the solution, helping make positive changes.  Local PTAs play an
important role in fundraising to provide building improvements, curriculumbased
programs, and social events—all vital to our school’s success.

Be a Role Model. By becoming a PTA member, you demonstrate to your
child the importance you place on their education.
