Trademark/ Service Mark

"National Congress of Parents and Teachers," "Parent Teacher Association," "PTA," and "PTSA" are all registered service marks of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers. A service mark has the same legal status as a trademark but is the designation used for services rather than commercial products. (PTA®; PTSA®.)

The symbol designates that PTA titles have been registered with the federal government and may not be used by organizations not affiliated with the National Congress of Parents and Teachers.
