PTA

Starling Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) is comprised of families, teachers, administrators, and business and community leaders devoted to the educational success of our children and the promotion of parent involvement in schools. The mission of Starling Elementary PTA is to support our teachers and administrators and to supplement and enrich the curriculum our children are being taught. We desire to create a spirit of inclusion so that all stake holders in our children’s education feel valuable and welcome in our school. We seek to involve every parent and to help members of our community contribute to our school’s success. Our goal is to work toward the National and Georgia PTA’s goal of a quality education and nurturing environment for every child. As your childs' first teacher, you play a big part in how well your son or daughter does in school. We invite you to work with our teachers to help students get all they can out of their growing years.

Starling PTA is a registered nonprofit association. We provide resources and educational activities for our children and their families, and we provide support for our teachers. We serve as a forum for parents, teachers, administrators and any concerned persons, and bring them together to discuss ways to promote quality education and arts in education, encourage community involvement, and to work towards a safe and healthy environment. Membership in Starling PTA is open to anyone who wants to be involved and make a difference for our children at Starling Elementary School. Every person who joins Starling PTA automatically becomes a member of both the state and National PTAs. Join Starling PTA for great benefits you get as a result of being a member. You can also donate to Starling PTA by being our community partners. The National/ Georgia PTA Mission Statement is to be a powerful voice for all children; a relevant resource for families and communities; and a strong advocate for the education and well-being of every child. The National PTA Vision is "Making Every Child's Potential a Reality."
