Georgetown PTA
The PTA
(Parent/Teacher Association) is a grassroots organization made up of parents,
teachers and others around the state who have a special interest in children,
families and schools. By joining a PTA, a member automatically becomes
part of the largest child-advocacy organization in the state — over
650,000 strong across Texas.
Studies have proven that membership in PTA provides your child and other
children around you with a greater chance of achieving in school. PTA
membership helps keep parents informed and involved in their child's education.
The Georgetown Council of PTAs, composed of PTA chapters at each campus, is one of the strongest supporters of education and community involvement in the Georgetown school district. The Council of PTAs works to support the students at GISD by strengthening parent involvement and community commitment to our local schools. The Council of PTAs works with educators in all grade levels and serves as a liaison between the classroom and the community. The Council of PTAs meets regularly throughout the school year, and PTA presidents from each campus are able to meet with district administrators at monthly luncheons to support communication and parental involvement.
