Welcome to the 2013-2014 Academic School Year! We are thrilled that you are a part of our community of Parents, Students, Teachers and All Administration that work to make Huntsville High the best it can be. The overall purpose of PTSA is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging families and communities We advocate for ALL children. At HHS, we are a PTSA, with the “S” standing for “STUDENT”. At the high school level, students take a more active leadership role in contributing to the school, and we, as a PTSA, are able to help develop that potential. It is very, very fulfilling to see these kids grow in their abilities over the four years they are at HHS! At the Registration assemblies in August, the most repeated message from faculty AND students was for kids to “Get Involved”. With Something. Anything. They know that being involved leads to a higher rate of success. And, as parents, we all want our children to succeed. I encourage all parents to “Get Involved” with Something, Anything that supports your child, their school, their academics, their activities, their social life, their interests. Let them know you are still there for them! I hope you will join the PTSA if you have not already. This Newsletter is just one of the many services we provide for the HHS community and in it, you will find many ways to Get Involved. If there are questions we can help you with regarding Huntsville High, PTSA, or ways to support our school, please do not hesitate to contact us. Together, we make a great team! Have a wonderful year and Go Big Red! Warm Regards, Amy Harbarger, PTSA President harbargd@bellsouth.net
