The governance structure of the PTA is outlined in the PTA Constitution and By-laws.
Through the Continuing Education Grant, the PTA provides financial assistance to teachers pursing coursework with a focus on school administration. The Annual Diocesan Conference and regional conferences provide an opportunity for PTA units to gather on a yearly basis to conduct business and to share best practices.
