Hurst Hills PTA needs your help. First, we are collecting the following items for the district food pantry. Cereal, oatmeal and cereal bars will go to help people in the district in need. Secondly, Reflections, a PTA sponsored art and music program, needs a Hurst Hills representative to run the event at our school.
The PTA will send out packets soon containing info about membership and volunteering. Please start to think how you can help out to make your child's school an even better place to be. We would love to have new faces come lend a smile aiding teachers, the librarian and/or helping at some of our special events for this year. Keep checking back for updates on events coming throughout the year.

Hurst Hills PTA is focusing on 4C's this year... Community, Communicate, Connect and Celebrate. We hope to get a lot of new volunteer involvement with several special events coming up this year.

Turn in your Box Tops before the end of the school year
so they don’t expire over the summer, but don’t stop there! Shop and collect
Box Tops throughout the summer, turning them in when school begins next
year.It will be amazing to see
how many Box Tops we can collect over the summer months.Good luck and keep up the GREAT work!
A big thanks to Dottie Hopper for coordinating Box Tops, reaching new levels of
success each semester.
