January 14, 2025 - Texas PTA Rally Day 2025 is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 24, in Austin. The Comal ISD Council of PTAs is inviting all PTA members to attend this biennial event which brings together parents, educators and community leaders to advocate for every child's education, health and well-being.
This year's Rally Day theme, "Legacy in Action," celebrates the enduring impact of PTA's advocacy while inspiring members to build on this foundation for future generations.
Texas PTA's mission is clear: To make every child's potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children. Every voice and perspective at Rally Day will contribute to meaningful conversations about policies that directly affect classrooms and campuses.
The day will include the following opportunities:
- To meet with legislators to discuss key issues impacting education;
- To rally on the Capitol steps uniting and amplifying a collective voice; and
- To participate in informative sessions to equip attendees with tools for effective advocacy and understanding Texas PTA's legislative priorities.
