What is PTA and what does it do for your child? 
Garden Ridge Elementary PTA (Parent Teacher Association) is a division of Texas PTA and National PTA. It is the largest child advocacy association in the nation. It reminds us of our obligations to the children of our nation and provides parents and families with a powerful voice to speak on behalf of every child while providing the best tools to help our children be successful students.
