Join the LASA PTSA Today! Help Us Reach Our Goal & Amplify Our Voice

by Newsletter Comment Closed

We are still actively accepting memberships for the LASA PTSA! Everyone in our community is welcome to join, including parents, students, faculty, staff, and friends.

We currently need about 50 more members to match last year’s enrollment. With the upcoming legislative session having public education on the docket, a stronger, larger PTSA means a more powerful voice for students and schools statewide.

While recent election results showed overwhelming support for public education, membership numbers give PTA advocates leverage to amplify needs at the Capitol. Thank you for voting in support of our schools—please join us to help boost the PTA voice!
