2003 Montana PTA Convention Advocacy Report Madam President, The Montana PTA’s Legislative Platform states that we will recommend initiate and support legislation and appropriations for public schools that will insure all children and youth in Montana a high quality education. The Montana PTA will support legislation for the improvement of community programs and facilities, which provide maximum protection against moral, emotional and physical hazards for children and youth and strengthen home and family life. The Montana PTA believes all levels of government play varying roles in ensuring that the educational needs of all citizens are met. In order to ensure effective and efficient use of limited public resources the responsibilities of each level should be clearly defined. Controls of the public schools belong to the taxpayers through their nonpartisan state Board of Education and elected nonpartisan local Boards of Education and the Montana PTA shall oppose any legislation that would curtail the power and responsibility of local Boards of Education. No local, state or federal legislation policies or procedures would be passed that will erode the authority of local Boards of Education. The State roll in education should include the responsibility of providing a system of financing education to ensure adequate and equitable financing of public elementary and secondary schools and to ensure the continued strength and diversity of post-secondary institutions. In addition, the State should be formally committed to ensuring all persons within Montana an equal educational opportunity without regard to race, sex, national origin, handicapping condition, ethnic heritage, economic condition or geographic location.

We are a nationally-recognized clearinghouse for information and advice to keep evolution in the science classroom and "scientific creationism" out.

When teachers, parents, school boards, the press and others need information and help, they turn to NCSE.
