About RECPTA

Our focus is to build friendships that will last into the school-age years and beyond. We reflect the diversity of our neighborhood and thrive on our common love for our kids and our community. Founded in 1926, we are the oldest early childhood PTA in Texas. The connections that develop through meetings, playgroups, and community events are what have sustained RECPTA for over 90 years.
