Join WSPTA for Focus Day on Monday, February 17, 2025, in Olympia! Come advocate to close the funding gaps and ensure financial stability for schools and other vital issues that impact students around the state! All WSPTA members are welcome. Bring your children to join in the fun! We need your stories, we need your voice, we need you!
New Venue: WSPTA reserved space across the street from the Capitol at the United Churches of Olympia (110 11th Ave SE, Olympia) to network with fellow PTA advocates and hear from lunchtime speaker Chris Reykdal, WA Superintendent of Public Instruction. Please note that WSPTA is not in the Columbia Room at the Capitol this year.
The venue will be open from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm. The agenda is available on Eventbrite and will be included in the Focus on Advocacy newsletter as updates are made. In addition, we will be offering docent-led tours of the Capitol grounds (limited availability) and box lunches at an additional charge.
We are encouraging members to schedule meetings with their legislators this day (even if you need to schedule remote meetings). It is important to reach out to legislators as soon as possible.
The event is free. Information on the venue and parking can be found here. Register today!
Are you starting to plan your budget for the coming year? Join WSPTA as we answer your budget questions and talk about how to build a budget narrative to increase your members’ understanding of your finances.
Everyone in the LWSD community is invited to join us for our February Lunch & Learn, where we will welcome Dr. Shannon Hitch,
LWSD Executive Director of Special Services, to discuss special education in our schools. Where can families find the most current information and prepare their children to get the most out of the special services our schools offer? Bring your questions and concerns, and we’ll see you on Feb. 20!
LWPTSA Council’s Lunch & Learn series consists of short presentations and Q&A on topics of interest to our school community, from noon – 1 pm on select Thursdays online via Zoom. Grab your lunch, log on, and learn with us! Event links will be shared on our website calendar, social media and newsletters close to the event dates. Topics and featured speakers are subject to change and will be updated as they are finalized.
This presentation will help participants understand the importance of the nominating committee for your PTA, how to elect them, and methods of organization so they have the tools to help them recruit qualified candidates for leadership positions.
