We’re a group of hard working and remarkable parents and teachers that are making a united effort to secure the educational, physical, mental, emotional and social well being of EVERY child. 

The Parent Teacher Association of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Literary and Fine Arts School stands on Dr. King’s assertion “Injustice Anywhere is a Threat to Justice Everywhere."

Our commitment is derived from Article iii Section 1 of National Parent Teacher Association bylaws and our primary focus is to bring Dr. King’s dreams to fruition.
