Membership Growth Awards are calculated periodically by WSPTA, based on membership records—no application needed. PTAs still have time to earn a growth award! As we are coming to the end of a membership year, it’s a great time to promote some summer discounts that people may want to take advantage of. Check out WSPTA’s member discounts page here. Local PTAs must be in good standing to be eligible for award recognition.
LWPTSA Council also extends our congratulations and thanks to these local units for their achievements in staff membership and general membership:
