PTA/PTSA

Rowland students benefit from strong PTA (Parent-Teacher Association) units on every campus. We even have a PTA group fro Special Education parents. Each year, parents families and community members invest more than 100,000 volunteer hours in support of PTA/PTSA units.

Advocacy continues to be a cornerstone of  PTA, with our local units assisting with the health, education, and welfare of RUSD children and families. One representative from each unit participates in the Rowland Council PTA an organization that advises the superintendent and District leadership team.

PTA/PTSA units spearhead fund-raising activities to provided supplemental funding for fields trips, enrichment activities, and the acquisition of technology, books and other resources fro school and classroom libraries. The units also provided parent education, and host monthly meeting to keep parents and families informed. From pamphlets and booklets to videos and a detailed national website, PTA/PTSA units provided a wide range of resources to help parents serve as their child’s first teacher to enable success
in school.

The facts don’t lie. Parent involvement  equals student achievement, which in turn leads to a better world for future generations!
