What is PTA anyway? Why should I join?

Pohatcong PTA is an organization of parents who want to enhance their child's school experience with fun and educational activities that will deepen bonds between home and school, ultimately building a strong foundation for learning.

Regardless of family income or background, students whose parents are involved in their schooling are more likely to have higher grades and test scores, attend school regularly, have better social skills, show improved behavior, and adapt well to school. Henderson, A.T., and K.L. Mapp. 2002.

Do I have to go to meetings?

No, but we always love to see new faces! We understand that life is hectic and time at home with your family is precious. You can participate in PTA at whatever level you feel comfortable.

I work. I don't have time for PTA.

Most of our active members balance careers too! Your job skills might be just what we need. Communication, organization, work ethic, and leadership are just some of the qualities that transfer well between careers and PTA.

What exactly does PTA do for the school?

Pohatcong PTA funds the following activities for your children.
