  11. Why Should You Join The JTMS PTA ? Get Connected. There’s no better way to know what’s happening in your school. Tap into a Network. PTA functions are opportunities to meet other parents and teachers. You can share ideas, concerns, and experiences.  Watch Yourself Grow. By volunteering with your PTA, you put your skills and hobbies to use for a noble cause—your child and all children in the community. Witness Improvement. By getting involved at your child’s school you’ll be part of the solution, helping make positive changes. Be a Role Model.  Taking an active role in your child’s school is critical to their success. By becoming a PTA member, you’ll be demonstrating to your child the importance you place on education.
