Extractions: Q: What is a SEPTA? A: SEPTA stands for S pecial E ducation P arent T eacher A ssociation. National PTA first introduced the concept of SEPTA in 1996 to address the unique needs of parents of children with special needs. Q: How many SEPTAs are there in Connecticut? A: Presently there are eleven SEPTAs in Connecticut: Bristol SEPTA, Colchester SEPTA, East Hartford SEPTA, Fairfield SEPTA, Farmington SEPTA, Rose SEPTA in Ridgefield, Watertown-Oakville SEPTA, West Hartford SEPTA, Angel Network SEPTA in Weston, Westport SEPTA and Windsor SEPTA. All but three of these SEPTAs started up within the last two years. Its likely that several new SEPTAs will form in other Connecticut communities during the 2002-2003 school year. Q: Whats the difference between a SEPTA and a regular PTA? A: In many ways, SEPTAs are just like any other PTA. Every SEPTA has bylaws and a board of directors, including a President, Secretary and Treasurer. Like all PTAs, SEPTAs report their membership to Connecticut PTA and submit the same dues. And like all PTAs everywhere, SEPTAs exist to improve the welfare of children.

Extractions: December 7, 2001 2001-R-0912 CONNECTICUT PARENT-TEACHER ORGANIZATIONS By: Jennifer Gelb, Research Attorney You asked (1) if Connecticut law recognizes parent-teacher organizations (PTO), (2) if so, whether it specifies their formation procedure, and (3) if Connecticut provides any protection for PTO directors, officers, or members against civil liability. PARENT-TEACHER ORGANIZATIONS Connecticut references parent-teacher organizations and parent-teacher associations interchangeably in its statutes, but they are actually very different. PTOs are school-based, and PTO decisions affect the students, parents, teachers, and staff of an individual school. Parent-teacher associations (PTA), by contrast, are not only part of an individual school, but are linked to the Connecticut PTA and the national PTA, which are child advocacy networks. A district schools may have some schools with PTOs and some with PTAs. The statutes mention PTOs and PTAs only in passing, and neither define them nor specify a manner for their creation.

Beyond Parent Involvement : January/February 2003 | PTO Today The Network, its students scores on connecticut standardized tests have shown marked improvement school decisions and governance through ptas/ptos and other parent organizations. http://www.ptotoday.com/0103partnership.html
Extractions: RECEIVE EMAIL UPDATES: SEARCH PTO TODAY: By Michelle Bates Deakin But Falk wanted to reach out beyond the ring of usual suspects: upper-income parents with high-achieving kids. And he wasnt just looking for involvement in the PTA. The former research chemist turned stay-at-home dad was hoping to get parents intimately involved in the schools curriculum with an eye toward improving the performance of all the students, whether they spoke English or one of the schools nine other languages: Bulgarian, Cambodian, Chinese, French, Khmer, Pakistani, Portuguese, Spanish, and Russian. For a model of how to involve parents in improving schools, Falk and the administration of Park Avenue Elementary turned to the National Network of Partnership Schools at Johns Hopkins University. The group provided a road map for Park Avenue to follow. The plan showed the school how to create five action teams for reading, writing, math, behavior, and partnerships. And in just four years the results of those teams have been dramatic. Standardized test scores have risen, and behavior problems with children have dwindled, with suspensions all but disappearing. Communication between parents and teachers has flourished, with multilingual volunteers sending newsletters and making phone calls to parents each month. The Network pointed the way for us, says Falk. It allowed us to go menu shopping and look at what other schools have done and whats worked.

Extractions: Volume 2, Issue 1 August/September, 2000 Two parent group leaders recount their very different first-year PTA experiences. Patti White and her fellow parent leaders at the Cherry Brook School in Collinsville, Connecticut, thought theyd done everything right. They filled in all the requisite paperwork, they paid their dues ($732), and they waited for the benefits to start arriving. And they waited and they waited and they called for answers and they waited and they e-mailed for answers and they waited . According to White, the real attraction in joining the PTA was the resources that were mentioned so prominently in the initial meeting. We felt that there was going to be this wonderful well of resources to draw on, recalls White. The PTA recruiter talked about bus safety kits and fire safety kits and a monthly magazine and information on speakers for our school. She really sold us that the PTA was going to come out and train our board members and everything. There was also a lot of talk about insurance benefits. It sounded great. And yet, as the 1999-2000 school year began, White looked for the benefits and couldnt find them.
PTO Vs. PTA : August/September 2000 (upd. Aug '02) | PTO Today The average connecticut PTA unit sends more than $900 in dues to the national and state ptas. But, no matter what the numbers, ptos and ptas are more alike http://www.ptotoday.com/0800ptopta2.html
Extractions: RECEIVE EMAIL UPDATES: SEARCH PTO TODAY: By Tim Sullivan It was perhaps the loudest reaction on the first day of the 2000 national PTA convention in Chicago. Illinois Superintendent of Schools Dr. Glenn McGee remembered a day earlier in his career when he made the mistake of referring to parent groups as PTOs. Almost on cue, the crowd of 1,500 or so PTAers roared their disapproval. Loud boos echoed through the cavernous meeting hall. He may as well have said that he hated the Cubs, the White Sox, the Bulls, and the Bears. Why the strong emotions? Are PTOs hurting kids or doing something wrong? While no PTA defenders go that far, there is a subtle but undeniable implication that those groups that arent part of the PTA are in some way choosing to abandon the cause of children. For some groups, the PTO vs. PTA debate is simply a matter of dollars and cents (either we dont want to send any money out of our school or are we getting enough service for the money we send out of our school?). For others, though, the debate takes on a significantly increased importance. If we dont speak for all children, then who will? the PTAs most loyal defenders often ask. Independence vs. Affiliation
08-01-00: Share Your Success Stories One big difference between ptas and ptos is the sharing I know you do these things. You have told me or another connecticut PTA board member all about it. http://www.ctpta.org/news/announcements/an-2000-08-01.html
Extractions: AUGUST 1, 2000 By Deborah Walsh, CT PTA President Share. The word is on my top ten list of "Words Too Often Used"right up there with "paradigm" and "fat-free." Wives ask husbands to "Share your feelings about my mother;" teachers ask students to "share what was so funny with the rest of the class," and Jerry Springer asks guests to "share their most outrageous sexual fantasies" with the studio audience. I think way too many things have been shared with me. Remember when the word "sharing" didnt make you grit your teeth? When the word was unselfish and unthreatening? When Mom said, "Share the Halloween candy with your brother who was too sick to go trick-or-treating," she meant give some of what you have to someone else who doesnt have some, no strings attached. And, be honest now, when you got over the loss of your Peanut Butter Cups and Twizzlers, you felt good knowing you did something nice for someone else, didnt you? I am going to give you a chance to feel good and - you guessed - share. Not candy, and certainly not feelings or outrageous sexual experiences. I ask you to share
