At the heart of PTA is a powerful mission: to advocate for every child and help create a brighter future for all students.
As the nation's largest volunteer child advocacy organization, PTA empowers families to make their voices heard, champion meaningful change, and help ensure every child has the opportunity to be safe, healthy, supported, and successful, both in the classroom and beyond.
Here in Washington State, PTA has a long history of working with local and state leaders to strengthen public education and improve the lives of children and families. Briarwood PTA is proud to be part of that mission!
Our PTA helps connect families with the issues, decisions, and opportunities that shape our children's education. Throughout the year, we:
Represent Our School: Send delegates to Washington State PTA's two major advocacy events, Legislative Assembly and Focus Day.
Keep Families Informed: Share important legislative updates and issues affecting the Issaquah School District and Washington public schools.
Connect with Decision-Makers: Help families learn about and engage with local and state legislators on matters impacting education.
Encourage Civic Participation: Promote voter registration and participation in local, state, and national elections, including among newly eligible young voters.
Advocacy isn't just about legislation. It's about standing up for our students, supporting our educators, and helping shape the future of our schools.
Every family has a voice, and every voice matters. Whether you're staying informed, sharing your perspective, or getting involved in advocacy efforts, you can help make a lasting difference for our Briarwood Bears and students across Washington State.
Stronger voices. Stronger schools. Brighter futures. ❤️💙
