California State PTA
Core Values
The
California State PTA is a professional, non-profit volunteer
organization committed to the well-being of all children. We
believe every adult has a responsibility to ensure that all children
develop to their full potential. We believe parents are children's
first teachers and that parent involvement is essential throughout a
child's educational experience. We believe that family is the
basic unit of society responsible for the support and nurturing of all
children, and recognize that "the family" may be defined in many ways.
We believe our responsibility includes advocating for the safety and
welfare of all children and the opportunity for a quality public
education for each child.
