Trust Lands

A Century of Advocacy for Utah’s Children

For more than 100 years, Utah PTA has been a steadfast advocate for Utah’s children. When the education community recognized that school trust lands were underperforming, Utah PTA helped lead the reform efforts to ensure these assets were managed responsibly and in the best interests of Utah’s public school students.

Today, Utah PTA continues its strong advocacy for effective stewardship of school trust lands and for the responsible investment and distribution of trust land revenues—ensuring these funds make a meaningful, lasting impact in Utah’s schools.
