Teachers belong in PTA! 🍎💙

The “T” in PTA stands for Teachers—and that includes all educators, administrators, and school support staff.

PTA is stronger when educators have a voice at the table. Let’s work together to support every student and strengthen our school communities!

Teachers, we want you in PTA!

Today, we’re remembering Dolly Parton—an extraordinary artist, but also a tireless champion for children, literacy and education.

Yes, Dolly gave us unforgettable music. But her impact reaches far beyond the stage. Through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, she helped put more than 325 million books into the hands of children around the world, inspiring a love of reading and helping families build a foundation for learning.

Her music may be her legacy, but so are the millions of children who grew up with a book in their hands because of her.

Dolly’s belief in the power of children, books and education will continue to inspire generations to come.
