Grades rise. Self-esteem grows. Schools improve.
More than 30 years of research has shown that children do better when their parents are involved both at home and in school.
Let's join together and be advocates for our Cypress Woods students. Join now.
Why Join PTA?
The number one reason to join the Parent Teacher Association is to benefit your child. In doing so, you also help your school and community. Sending in your PTA membership does not obligate you to volunteer. Of course, any time you give is appreciated and provides many advantages, 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-it helps to share ideas, concerns and experiences with other parents and educators in the community. PTA functions are opportunities to meet other parents and teachers, building rapport and discussing issues that are on your mind.
Watch Yourself Grow. By volunteering with your PTA, you gain valuable experiences. It’s an opportunity to put your skills and hobbies to good use for a good cause-your child and all children in the community.
Speak Up. Because the PTA is a forum for exchanging ideas, you are encouraged to make suggestions. PTA can be a way for you to more effectively suggest change at your child’s school. Put yourself in the decision making process regarding PTA programs and activities by attending meetings and speaking up!
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, curriculum-based programs, and social events-all vital to a school’s success.
Be a Role Model. By becoming a PTA member, you’ll be demonstrating to your child the importance you place on education.
