In Kentucky schools, families and communities will be involved in schools. Partnerships among schools, families, community groups, and individuals will be present in all schools. We will share and maximize resources and expertise in addressing the healthy development of children, youth, and their families.
The Kentucky PTA Website is designed with you in mind. We want to provide information that will help you work with children, whether they are your own children or other children you may teach or care for. We have information for parents and families, teachers and students, and all others who care about kids...
