	Illinois Loop: PTA and PTO
		National PTA faces a dropout problem by Rosa Maria Santana, Cleveland Plain Dealer, June 23, 2002: "...As the national PTA gathers in San Antonio this weekend for its annual convention, it faces plummeting membership and mounting criticism that it is irrelevant.
		The National PTA may soon have to decide whether it will be a parents' group or just another liberal lobby by Jennifer A. Marshall, World magazine, October 19, 2002.
		Myron Lieberman [of the Education Policy Institute] has written that 'the PTA has never differed from the NEA on a major policy issue.' This, as he adds, is 'a devastating commentary on its subordination of consumer to producer interests.' Until 1991, PTA lobbyists were headquartered in the NEA's national offices in Washington.

	Parent-Teacher Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is a voluntary organization bringing together parents and teachers of pupils in a particular school or school district, usually for fund-raising, building parent involvement at school and other activities relating to the welfare of the school, rather than the progress of individual pupils.
		In the United States, the National PTA was founded in 1897 in Washington, DC as the National Congress of Mothers by Alice McLellan Birney and Phoebe Apperson Hearst at a meeting of over 2000 parents, teachers, workers, and legislators.
		Among the early achievements that National PTA claims credit for are the creation of kindergarten, passage of child labor laws, establishment of a public health service, funding hot school lunch programs, developing a separate juvenile justice system, and enforcing mandatory immunization.

		The PTA had its beginnings in an era of women's clubs and settlement houses, when affluent, idealistic women went to work bettering the conditions of the urban poor.
		In "The Politics of the PTA" (2002), Charlene Haar explains that the PTA shifted its focus mainly because of its longstanding alliance with the National Education Association.
		As the PTA becomes increasingly irrelevant to the lives of children in public schools and parents become less willing to pay its dues, it is gradually being replaced by alternative, mostly home-grown, organizations that may call themselves guilds or councils or associations but are generally known as Parent Teacher Organizations--PTOs.
