WHAT IS A PTO VS. A PTA? |
|
The technical differences between a PTA (Parent Teacher Association) and a PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) are fairly simple. The National PTA is a formal membership organization headquartered in Chicago with a 105-year history. Local groups that choose to belong to the PTA must pay dues to the state and national organizations and abide by state and national group rules. In return, they get member benefits, and they get a voice in the operations of the larger organization. The National PTA maintains a Washington, D.C., lobbying office, and most state PTAs advocate at their respective state capitals, as well. The PTA carefully protects its name, so that in theory only dues-paying members of the group can call themselves a PTA.
The PTO, on the other hand, is a decidedly independent organization, much like charter schools. PTO believes that every school is unique and has individual needs and goals. PTO provides resources and tools — it represents the thousands of groups that choose to remain independent of the PTA.

CAN I CONNECT WITH SEASIDE ON SOCIAL MEDIA? |
|
Seaside does have active social media accounts although the main form of school communication is ParentSquare. ParentSquare’s main function is to provide a way for Seaside to send out mass communications to our school family. By mass communications, we mean whole consortium, whole school, whole grade level, or whole classroom notifications. We also use the calendar to post consortium wide events and the forms function to send out surveys, field permission trip forms, etc. We are working with our staff to ensure that these types of notifications are sent exclusively using ParentSquare.
