Welcome!
NUTMEG STATEWIDE PTA (NSPTA) was chartered by Connecticut
PTA on February 9, 1989 with a grant from National PTA and fifteen founding
members.
This statewide unit was established to provide a PTA vehicle for those
who are interested in statewide issues affecting the health, education and
welfare of children and youth. In 1998, CT PTA named NSPTA, as it’s official
statewide unit. |
