Membership forms can be viewed/downloaded using Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you don't have Adobe Acrobat, you can download it for free.

why should I join the ptsa?

The PTSA benefits each of its members in many different ways.  Some of  these benefits are listed on the Texas PTA website. For Bowie seniors to be eligible for a PTSA scholarship, they or their parents must belong to the Bowie PTSA.

The Texas PTA website has information on member discounts.  In order to view some information, you must have the TXPTA log in information. This may be obtained by contacting the current Membership Chairperson.

Each particpating company has slightly different ways of accessing the PTA member benefits, but none of them work by showing your card.
