Join us for Rally Day on February 22nd! Every two years when the legislature is in session, Texas PTA brings our many voices together for a jubilant day in Austin, culminating on the steps of the State Capitol. It is a day to exercise the mission of PTA: advocate for all children.
This year, it's a little different because of COVID, but Texas PTA is committed to bringing our members a rousing virtual experience – to share as a PTA or in the comfort or your own home or office.
