Membership FAQ

Q. What does PTSA make possible for our school?

A. Visit our About PTSA page to learn more about what PTSA does.


Q: Don't my tax dollars pay for public education?

A: Well, technically, yes.  But the state has underfunded education year after year, and we are left with making up the difference in our communities. If this sounds unfair to you, it is, and it is why PTSA advocates for students at the state, local and federal levels. To learn more, visit https://lwptsa.net/advocacy/


Q. I purchased a PTSA membership last year, should I purchase a PTSA membership again this year?

A. Yes, PTSA memberships are only good for the academic year it is purchased in.


Q. If one parent joins PTA, why do you ask that the other parent join, too?

A. As with any advocacy organization, the more members, the louder the voice. So, while it is not a requirement that every adult in the family join PTSA, we encourage you to help make the organization as strong an advocate as possible.


Q. Who can join PTSA?

A. Anyone who cares about our students can become a member! That means parents, grandparents, teachers, relatives, friends, community members and more.

A. Joining is simple! Just click here to join.


Q. Where does my membership fee go?

A. Your membership fee pays dues to our Local Council, State, and National PTA organizations which, in turn, provides leadership training, programming tools, resources, and governance guidelines, enabling our community to function as a local PTSA unit.


Q. Where do my donations go?

A. Your donation funds important programs and events for Audubon teachers and students, and family events that build a connected community.


Q. As a PTSA Member how do I access my member benefits (Washington State PTA member benefits)?

A. When you become a member of Audubon PTSA then in turn you become a member of Washington State PTA (WSPTA) as well.

 

WSPTA collaborates with businesses and associations that support WSPTA’s mission and vision. As part of that relationship, these organizations offer members special discounts to our local members.

 

To access them, members log in to Benefits & Discount Codes using the username and password provided in their welcome letter when they purchase a membership with school PTA.

 

Check the promotion codes listed for each provider in the main body of the page and the file list for time-sensitive offers.

 

Important Note: The benefits information is for members only. Please do not share promotional codes or the member username and password with non-PTSA members or on social media.


Q. Why is Classroom Teacher & Grade Information needed?

A. It is important to update the Grade and Classroom teacher name can distribute program materials, merchandise, prizes, etc. for your child(ren).  It also keeps the school directory up-to-date. We receive lists of students and their classes at the beginning of the year, but this often changes.

Q. Do Board Members get paid?
