Conn PTA recognizes that families may have factors that limit their interest or ability to join the PTA. Conn PTA officers do not want PTA membership to be a barrier for families who have an interest in getting involved and staying informed in the their child's education. It is our mission to be one voice for all children. We can only do that if all our children are equally represented with a relevant voice in our organization. We welcome all families to be involved at any level that they are comfortable and able.
