Register for your Official PTA Kit
formerly the PTA Back to School Kit
The PTA Back-to-School Kit is now The Official PTA Kit—PTA’s Big Box of Possibilities.
Along with the change in name, there is a change in the kit’s delivery. This year, all local, council, district, and region PTAs must register to receive their kit. The registration form allows your incoming PTA president or other authorized leader to provide your unit’s preferred shipping address and date.
This new process will help ensure that the kit gets into the right hands at the right time. And the kit is still free!
Look for a postcard and e-mail with your unit’s registration link starting at the end of April. Kits will ship weekly June 19 through the end of October (kits shipped after October 1 will incur a handling cost).

The Official PTA Kit is available exclusively to PTAs in good standing.
