Advocacy -- Action Alert! -- Every school day, nearly 50 million K-12 students and 6 million adults occupy close to 100,000 public school buildings in the United States. In more than 30% of public-school facilities, windows, plumbing and HVAC systems are considered in “fair” or “poor” condition. Given state budget shortfalls and the need for economic recovery, now is the time for the federal government to invest in school infrastructure. National PTA recently participated in a letter to policymakers advocating for $100 billion in direct grants to improve the nation’s public school facilities, and is asking for help in advocating for schools to be included in infrastructure funding by contacting our Representative and Senator!
