ADVOCACY WEEK is February 22 – 26, 2021
Thank you for stepping up to advocate for kids! WSPTA is offering multiple opportunities to LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD!
IN PERSON AT FOCUS DAY – (Tentatively) Monday, January 18, 2021 8am – 5pm – Come to Olympia to meet with legislators about WSPTA-supported issues and let them know what is important to you! Focus Day is for connecting with your legislators – no rally or speeches this year.
Stay tuned for more information about the details and format of this event. Contact advocacy@maywoodptsa.org to participate.
Also on the our advocacy page, you will find a detailed “Issue one-page handout” for each Priority in the drop-down lists under “Legislative Platform.” These one-page handouts are great sources of talking points and can be given to legislators as well.
ADVOCACY WEEK, February 22 – 26,2021 is a great opportunity to contact legislators in other ways, especially if coming to Olympia is inconvenient:

Thank you again for speaking on behalf of the 1.1 million public school students in Washington!
