The PTSO is looking for new Executive Board Members to join their team!

The Parent Teacher Student Organization (PTSO) meets on the second Thursday of the month at 5:30 pm, at school, unless otherwise noted.  PTSO meetings are public meetings, and everyone is welcome to attend.

All Highland Academy families are welcome and encouraged to join the PTSO.  As a member of the PTSO, you always have a voice at the meetings and a vote at the Annual Meetings.

To join, please download an application and return it via email HACSPTSO@gmail.com or drop it at the front desk at Highland Academy.  Payment for membership can be made via Venmo, cash or check (made out to HACS PTSO).  Copies of the application are also available at the school.
