Our HSA has several committees which are ongoing throughout the school year. Each committee has a Chairperson and Co-Chairperson as well as parent volunteers who believe they have skills that would be well-suited for the committee of their choosing.
If you're interested in volunteering for any of our committees, please use the contact form on the contact us tab and someone will be in touch with you!
