Welcome to the Guilford PTA

The Guilford Parent-Teacher Association is an independent, non-profit, non-partisan association whose mission is to be a collective voice for Guilford Public School students, parents, and teachers.  The Guilford PTA recognizes that which is working well, identifies areas of concern, and provides valuable resources toward solutions. 

The GPTA relies on its membership to work together with the Guilford Board of Education, Administration, PTO’s, parents, teachers, and community members and organizations to enhance and improve educational opportunities for all students.  In advocating for our students, parents, and teachers, and empowering parents to be a voice for their children, the GPTA expects to increase student performance at all levels and to promote the continuous improvement in the quality of Guilford’s public schools.
