Earlier this week, I posted about 150 PTA members going to the White House on Friday.

One of the things that will be happening is that the White House will honor twelve of them as “Champions Of Change”:

“President Obama knows how important parent involvement is in education, and we are excited to welcome PTA leaders who are setting such great examples in their communities to the White House,” said Valerie Jarrett, Senior Advisor to the President. “The PTA Champions of Change we are honoring have collaborated with school administrators and community leaders, launched innovative advocacy campaigns, and worked tirelessly to grow their local PTAs to involve more parents in their children’s education.”

Congratulations!
