By becoming a member your voice joins tens of thousands of PTA members across the state via state PTSA, and millions across the country via National PTA. It gives us a stronger voice at local, regional, and national legislative sessions where we advocate for yours and all other children. At JSIS, many decisions are made at our PTSA General Meetings, including who is elected to the executive board, and how the PTA raises and allocates funds. While all are welcome to attend, learn, and discuss at General Meetings, only PTA members may vote. PTSA members can also sign their child up to participate in After School Activities (more details below). As an additional perk, Washington State PTA members can access discounts with many supportive businesses.
