Are

you

you ready? We are accepting entries for our Parent Group of the Year search and we know there are lots of good stories out there.

This year, we’ve decided to spice things up by holding a weekly drawing. Each week between now and the end of May, we will randomly select one winner from the week’s Parent Group of the Year entries. Winners will receive a $25 Amazon gift card—just for submitting an entry!

We know lots of groups get their entries in close to our contest deadline (this year, that’s June 2). So, the sooner you get your entry to us, the better your chances are to win a prize from our weekly drawing!

Our first drawing will be held on April 28, so head over to our  Parent Group of the Year page to download an entry form!

PTO Today has held an annual Parent Group of the Year search for 14 years. Each year, we recognize PTOs and PTAs across the country that are doing great things and are a source of inspiration for all parent groups.

This year, we will be awarding $7,000 in prizes, including a $3,000 grand prize to the group selected as National Parent Group of the Year. Another seven groups will win prizes of $500 for specific categories of parent groups: 

  • Outstanding parent group at a small school



  • Outstanding parent group at a private school



  • Outstanding focus on academics and enrichment



  • Outstanding family event

  • Outstanding major project or program



  • Outstanding outreach to a diverse school community



  • Outstanding community service project


Also, we will be selecting one group with the help of our Facebook community for a $500 Judge’s Choice award.

We’re looking forward to reading your stories!
