CHS PTSA Advocacy
For more than 100 years, PTA has advocated for the health, safety, welfare, and education of all children and youth and provided support to members so that they can speak with a powerful voice and be a relevant resource for parents. From the beginning, PTA has advocated for a strong public school system to ensure equity and opportunity for all children. PTA has never lost sight of this goal and continues to flourish as an advocacy group operating at the national, state, and local levels - often within a school community, and in partnership with educators, legislators, and policy makers. – From the WSPTA Advocacy Handbook
Cedarcrest High School PTSA is proud to be part of this effort and welcomes your questions, comments, and ideas around Advocacy issues. Email chs.ptsa@outlook.com to learn more!
