Election Day

More Than Ever

Membership VP, Allison Lassahn :

This year, our school needs your help more than ever. I hope you will be inspired to join PTSA. Our teachers are rocking and rolling with support! However, we need our parents to join in and join the Marcus PTSA!

As everyone knows, this 2020-21 school year is different. The ongoing pandemic is disrupting every aspect of normal society, including greatly limiting how our students and teachers can interact with one other and how the rest of us can help, at least physically. I challenge you to not let COVID-19 be an excuse to disengage but, to help double our efforts to ensure that EVERY student, teacher and family has what they need to succeed this very challenging year. The students and teachers still need your help now more than ever.

Benefits of Joining PTSA
  • We are your official teacher appreciation organization!
  • Scholarships! Marcus PTSA awards several $500 scholarships to Seniors who have been members of the PTSA for two years.
  • More Scholarships! Members can apply for $1000 through Texas PTA

Under the Dome

Months before the legislature convenes for regular session, Texas PTA is hard at work preparing our thunderous advocacy voice. First, we survey our membership to find out what’s important to you, covering a broad range of topics pertinent to Texas students and schools. Next, the Texas PTA Advocacy Committee takes those findings to draft a list of legislative priorities. The recommendations of the committee are presented to the Texas PTA Board of Directors, which then votes to either adopt or amend them.

On September 13, 2020, the Texas PTA Board of Directors moved to adopt the legislative priorities as presented. These priorities will now guide our association’s work during the upcoming 87th session. Please begin to familiarize yourself with our 14 priorities, organized under four headings: Support Student Success; Health & Safety; Meaningful Assessment and Accountability; and Strengthen Public Schools.More information will be available for each priority beginning this fall.
