Our Mission

The Pennsylvania Teacher Advisory Committee (PTAC) endeavors to create a direct pipeline between highly recognized teachers from the wide variety of teaching settings across the Commonwealth and education decision makers so that substantive feedback from classroom practitioners across Pennsylvania will inform the policy decisions and educational practices that impact students.

Who Are We? 

We are a diverse group of highly recognized teachers from across the Commonwealth dedicated to ensuring every child in Pennsylvania has access to a quality education. Represented in our group are teachers from Kindergarten through 12th grade and all content areas from rural, urban, and suburban schools. 

What Do We Offer?

• Committees of highly qualified and recognized teachers from across the Commonwealth to provide insight, perspectives, and suggestions concerning impending education actions and regulations, and critical educational issues
• Narratives from classrooms in the Commonwealth that inform decision makers of the practical implications of education policy
• ​Consultation on best educational practices
