2025 COPTA Convention-
We are thrilled to announce that the 2025 Colorado PTA Convention is coming to our area! This year’s event will be held at the Sheraton Lakewood Hotel on Saturday, April 26, 2025.
The convention’s theme, “It Starts with You,” emphasizes the importance of individual action in driving positive change. The event will feature inspiring keynote speakers, engaging workshops, and valuable networking opportunities designed to empower you with tools and ideas to support our schools and communities.
Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with fellow PTA members, share experiences, and gain insights that will elevate your PTA journey. Early bird registration is now open, and attendees are responsible for booking their own hotel accommodations.
We look forward to seeing you there and working together to make a lasting impact on our children’s education. Visit www.copta.org/convention for more info!
