PTA Leaders, Members, Colleagues and Supporters,
Congratulations to you and your PTA team, and welcome to the 2011-2012 school year! PTA continues to be the oldest, largest, child advocacy association in this country, providing history and a milestone of accomplishments that support the connection to effective engagement and academic achievement for all children.
There are many issues and challenges our students and families face today, and this is our moment to make a difference in their lives. To be successful, we must work as a team, and become equipped as leaders and attend training, utilize resources and strengthen communications with one another. To ensure every child’s potential is a reality, it is vital that we collaborate with local school communities. This is the heart of PTA.
The work we are charged to do is best summarized in the Vision and Mission of PTA, and captured in this year’s Georgia PTA Theme and Membership Theme:
Theme: Stand together. Power up. Reach out.
Membership Theme: Join Us!
Thank you for this opportunity to serve you, students, families and educators. There is no better time than now to be a leader, and to advocate for education on behalf of all children and youth in Georgia. Your continued support is greatly appreciated; encourage others and invite them to Join Us!
Donna Kosicki
President, Georgia PTA
2011 – 2013
