Program of Work Shapes PTA Aims for 62nd Convention
The National Congress of Parents and Teachers urges PTAs to strengthen the home as the basic unit of society, improve teacher employment standards, and lead library efforts when local districts cannot. President James C. Parker notes 11 million members and calls for salary adequacy, library funding, and volunteer support to build libraries. The Omaha convention also endorses eleven-point principles stressing human values, religious faith, safe homes, health, education, vocational competence, resource conservation, constructive leisure, international understanding, and civic responsibility.
