Mission

We will encourage members to be involved in community affairs and work for worthy educational causes. Our mission is to serve and not to be served.

Vision
The Missouri Retired Teachers Association and Public School Personnel is a caring, active, and knowledgeable community. Members give their talents and time to support retired and active public school employees.

Our motto is “To Serve, Not To Be Served.”
