Why should your school district join PARSS? We have the answers!

The Pennsylvania Association of Rural and Small Schools (PARSS) is the only education association in the state that participated in the landmark school funding lawsuit—successfully advocating for fairer funding for small and rural districts. As a result, our members are already seeing positive outcomes.

When your district joins PARSS, you gain access to timely legislative updates, connections with the Pennsylvania Department of Education, and free professional development opportunities for school board members and educators. We also offer webinars on current educational issues, collect and share valuable survey data, and provide free job postings through our website and social media.

PARSS actively promotes the voice of our members through media representation and has awarded more than $180,000 in scholarships over the past six years.

Join us and be part of a powerful network working for equitable education across Pennsylvania. See our informational flyer for more reasons!
