Every Member Matters!!

When parents are involved with their child’s education, the child is more likely to succeed. Joining the PTA demonstrates your support of the mission and goals of the PTA and entitles you to “voice and vote”. Our goal this year is to attain 100% membership which means we have an adult PTA member for every Briarwood student. Remember:

  • Joining does not obligate you to do anything more than that. Please join and show that you care and are invested in the welfare of our children.
  • You are not required to volunteer – but we’d love it if you did!
  • 100% membership gives credence to our PTA voice in advocating for our children with the Legislature and sends a message to Olympia that our school and district are made up of parents who are concerned and involved.
  • Last year, the Issaquah School District had more than 14,000 PTA members which accounted for more than 10% of the total state PTA members.  This is particularly impressive given that Issaquah students make up less than 2% of the the total student population in the state.
  • PTA is the largest child advocacy group in the United States.
  • You don't need to be parent to join PTA.  Grandparents, friends, and community members are also welcome!
  • Added bonus: All PTA members receive a copy of the Briarwood Student Directory and a Briarwood Car Magnet.

A portion of your membership dues are sent to Washington State PTA as well as the National PTA.  PTA Programs at Briarwood are made possible primarily through our fundraising efforts.  Please join today!
