Parent Resources

Individual members can benefit from various resources offered through the New Jersey and National PTA such as:

  • Parenting resources - access information and links from both the NJ and National PTA websites
  • Publications - the NJP-T, the state PTA Bulletin, and Our Children, the National PTA magazine, and legislative newsletters 
  • Leadership training - opportunities through workships at NJPTA's Summer Leadership Conference and Annual Convention, as well as on-line at the National PTA website
  • Networking with other members - parents, teachers, students, community leaders

 
Parents' Guide To Student Success

The Parents’ Guide to Student Success guides were developed to support the Common Core State Standards. Created by teachers, parents, education experts, and others from across the country, the standards provide clear, consistent expectations for what students should be learning at each grade to be prepared for college and career. National PTA created the guides for grades K–8 and two for grades 9–12 (one for English language arts/literacy and one for mathematics). In all, 11 guides were created.

See the list to the right for all the guides. Click on each for a link for that guide.

The New Jersey Parent Information and Resource Center (NJPIRC) is a program of Prevent Child Abuse-New Jersey (PCA-NJ) funded by the US Department of Education and was established in 2006.  NJPIRC provides services designed to help and ensure that students in New Jersey, particularly those in low performing districts, achieve higher academic performance.  

What are some of NJPIRC goals?
       To help parents become more involved in their child’s educational lives

       To make partnerships between parents, schools and communities stronger
