Position Papers
Position Papers represent the research of the NYS PTA Board of Directors and are an important part of our NYS PTA advocacy document. The "Where We Stand" Position Papers provide guidelines on varying topics and, as approved by the Board of Directors, are of equal importance to resolutions as a basis for PTA advocacy.
Position Papers are reviewed every seven years by the New York State PTA Resolutions Committee.
For the convenience of our members, they are also provided below as individual documents. Just click on the title, download and share!
