Liza Weidle has been writing parenting columns and articles for almost a decade and featured for almost three years in The North Carolina Journal for Women. She takes all the wads of education news that come home in her children’s backpacks, in the mail, on the news, sifting them down to easy-to-read features and parenting tips that appear regularly in The Cary News, News and Observer and PTA newsletters in Wake County.

Her expertise as the PTA Lady developed over the last decade of volunteering in a multitude of PTA leadership positions. During her term as the elected president of the Wake County PTA Council, this 48,000 member organization earned the highest recognition for councils in North Carolina.

Liza is a motivational speaker on education, family, and parenting topics. Most recently, Liza was a feature workshop presenter at the N.C. Communities in Schools Conference and the N.C. Raising Achievements and Closing Gaps conference.
