Trust Lands

Utah PTA has been advocating for Utah's children for over 80 years. Twenty-five years ago, when the education community realized the school trust lands were under performing, Utah PTA was at the forefront of the reform efforts, helping to ensure these assets were managed with the best interests of Utah's public school children in mind.

Utah PTA continues to advocate for all of Utah's children, for proper management of our school trust lands, and for the distribution from the investment of trust land revenues to continue to make a difference in our schools.
