What is PTA?

The Parent Teacher Association is an organization that strives to unite the home, school and community on behalf of children and youth.  The mission of PTA is:

1) To support and speak on behalf of children and youth in the schools, in the community, and before governmental agencies and other organizations that make decisions affecting children.

2) To assist parents in developing the skills they need to raise and protect their children.

3) To encourage parent and public involvement in the public schools of this nation.

 

 

What is a “Council”?

 

A “council” is a group of local PTA units organized under the authority of Michigan PTSA for the purpose of promoting conferences, communications, leadership development and coordination of the efforts of such local PTA units.

 

 

What is the Purpose of a Council?

 

Councils play an important role in the PTA.  They provide support and assistance to the PTA/PTSA units within their area and are a valuable source of guidance and information. 

 

Livonia PTSA Council promotes the mission of PTA by providing the following services:

 

1) Interpret, promote and support the basic policies of the PTA

2) Coordinate the efforts of local units within their areas

3) Promote the use of Michigan and National PTA publications, programs and projects

4) Provide opportunities for PTA to address issues, which include but reach beyond the local school community

5) Strengthen PTA leadership by providing leadership development

6) Coordinate/cooperate in community projects

7) Enhance communication among local units, Livonia PTSA Council and Michigan PTA

8) Provide a forum for public information and debate on issues affecting children

 

Livonia PTSA Council takes great pride in serving the 24 local PTA/PTSA units of Livonia Public Schools by providing information, instruction and leadership training.  Your continued support of LPTSAC is appreciated as we all can benefit by sharing ideas and successes, by discussing issues that affect our children and seeking appropriate actions, and by speaking as one voice for every child. 

 

I invite you to take part in the programs and the leadership training opportunities that LPTSAC offers.  The specific dates and locations of these sessions can be found on the Calendar link. 

 

Looking forward to a year of growth and accomplishment!
