In the United States every primary and secondary school has a Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA). The PTSA system is aptly described as all encompassing; extending from the national level to every state, county, and town. The most important event of this organization is the annual talent competition.
美國的各級學校都有 PTSA (Parents Teacher Student Association) 的組織，從市、縣、州乃至全國性的系統堪稱完備，而此一組織最重要的年度活動就是才藝競賽。
