                                          For more than a century, Parent Teacher Association (PTA) has
                                          provided support, information and resources to families focused on
                                          the health and education of children. The organization was founded
                                          in 1897 in Washington DC as the National Congress of Mothers by
                                          Alice McLellan Birney and Phoebe Apperson Hearst. If not for these
                                          women and their vision and determination, there would not be a
                                          PTA—an organization that has been woven into the very fabric of
                                          American life.

By whatever name it has been known, National PTA was created to meet a profound challenge:
to better the lives of children. And today, it continues to flourish because PTA has never lost
sight of its goal: to change the lives of children across our great nation for the better.
Have a Safe and Happy Summer!
