PTA
What is the PTA? PTA is the Parent-Teacher Association. The mission of the PTA is to make every child’s potential a reality. The goal of Stirling Elementary's PTA is to create the most educational, fun, and safe environment possible for our children.
The PTA serves as a forum where parents, teachers, administrators, and other concerned community members discuss ways to promote quality education, strive to expand the arts, encourage community involvement, and work for a healthy environment and safe neighborhoods. Being a PTA member provides you with regular updates on school activities and protocols, access to parents of other children at the school, a forum to discuss concerns and problems at school, access to resources on parenting, education, and more from the National PTA, and more!
