We talk a lot about JOINING PTA—and new members are important! But let’s not forget the people who have already said yes. 💙

RENEWING matters, too! Past members already know the value of PTA, so make sure they’re invited back and reminded why their membership makes a difference. A simple reminder can be all it takes to turn last year’s member into this year’s member.

And remember, PTA membership is for everyone! Parents, teachers, students, school staff, family members and other members of your school community can all be part of PTA.

Looking for tools and ideas to recruit AND retain your PTA members? We’ve got you covered!
