Become a National PTA School of Excellence

National PTA School of Excellence is a recognition program that supports and celebrates partnerships between PTAs and schools to enrich the educational experience and overall well-being for all students. As a National PTA School of Excellence, families feel welcomed and empowered to support student success, and PTA is a key partner for continuous school improvement.
  1. Enroll your PTA between April 1 and Oct. 1. You will receive the "Getting Started Guide," which describes program components, including your first steps to gather feedback from families and set goals with your school partner.
  2. Survey your school community and share the results with National PTA by submitting a Family-School Partnership Scan by Nov. 1.
  3. Receive a customized "Roadmap to Excellencecontaining recommendations that respond to your specific results from the Family-School Partnership Scan.
  4. Complete the National PTA School of Excellence application before June 1, 2015.
