This year, National PTA is supporting our nation’s public schools by participating in Public Schools Week March 25-29, 2019. As we get ready to celebrate our nation’s public schools, our students and the professionals who work each day to make every child’s potential a reality, we are asking all PTA members to help promote Public Schools Week by using the attached toolkit, which provides suggestions to participate during the week and contains sample graphics and messaging you can use on social media. Visit the Learning First Alliance’s website to learn more about this year’s Public Schools Week.
