Regional Town Hall:
Student Voices Leading the Way Forward

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the January 7, 2026 Regional Town Hall on Education Funding — students, families, educators, community members, and legislators. Your presence, engagement, and support helped make this student-led event meaningful and impactful.We are grateful to all who shared their time, voices, and perspectives as we came together to advocate for fully funded, equitable, and sustainable public education in Washington!
 Take the next step:  

It's more than a membership. It's a partnership.

The easiest way to get involved is to join a local PTA, any PTA. Whether you are a lifetime advocate or new to PTA, we welcome new ideas and value enthusiasm from members and volunteers, old and new.  This does not mean you have to attend monthly meetings, or volunteer for eternity. Joining a PTA shows your support for the mission of Washington State PTA, to make every child’s potential a reality.
