Wake PTA Frequently Asked Questions...
PTA's don't just run themselves... there is a lot of time, energy and detail that goes into building and maintaining a successful PTA/PTSA!
It's volunteers - some with vast amounts of history and experience, some with little to none - that are the backbone of your school PTA programs, events and advocacy. It's not surprising that PTA's do often get into places where they feel stuck, exhausted, over-committed and under-appreciated!
The information here is aimed at helping you find ideas and insights from a lots of different perspectives. We encourage local units to share with us - things that have worked or been working, lessons learned and tips on how to keep things moving forward. We like to hear and share stories of success, and we are also happy to solicit feedback if your school has run into an issue you can't seem to get through.
No matter what - your PTA/PTSA IS HELPFUL! Never forget your reason for existing - the smallest step forward does make a difference in the educational experience and life of a student. Let us know how we can help!
