Parent teacher association (PTA) is a formal organization of parents and teachers that is formed to get parents involved in their children’s academics as well as to help and reform the school systems. The main focus of PTA is to work for the prosperity of the children. PTA provide parents and teachers a mutual platform to work for the betterment of the school, teaching and everything that influences the physical and intellectual growth of a child. This partnership is integral for parent, teacher and student success. When we work together everyone wins.
