WHAT IS FOCUS DAY & WHY SHOULD YOU CONSIDER ATTENDING?
Washington State PTA Focus Day is an annual gathering where advocates, parents, educators, and community members join forces to voice their concerns, share ideas, and engage in constructive dialogue about the future of education in our state. This is also a school holiday - an ideal time to involve students in the process of local government and citizen action!  It's a day to amplify our collective voice and make a difference! 
 
YOUR VOICE MATTERS
Our Legislators want to hear from YOU. They need to hear the stories, experiences, and passion of our students, parents and teachers - it can be the catalyst for positive change in our education system.  
 
MEET WITH REPRESENTATIVES & SENATORS
PTA Focus Day provides a unique opportunity to engage directly with decision-makers. Your face-to-face conversations can be a game-changer and your participation can influence decision-makers and drive positive change.
 
ADVOCATE FOR FUNDING
By attending, you become part of a movement that seeks to shape the educational landscape for the better and you become a crucial advocate for increased funding that will directly benefit our students, teachers, and schools. 
 
COMMUNITY CONNECTION
