Welcome
President’s Message,
Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year. Thank you to all the teachers, administrators, and volunteer PTSA members who worked diligently last year to keep our students and our families engaged. We were able to invest almost $30,000 into our school and also many invaluable other programs and services. We are looking forward to another great year ahead!
HOM PTSA continues to guide our activities by remaining safe and healthy while still focusing on our goal of improving academic success by facilitating family engagement, communication, spirit, and raising funds to assist where needed.
Please consider joining or renewing your membership in HOM PTSA. It is $10 per adult and $8 per student. Your membership will make a difference and does not obligate you to anything further – although we would love to meet you and keep you engaged! Please follow PTSA on Facebook @hom.ptsa and on Instagram @hompanthers for up to the minute updates.
On behalf of the entire HOM PTSA Board and our hundreds of members, we look forward to a successful, happy, and enriching year, and look forward to your support.
You can always reach us by emailing homptsa@gmail.com.
Sincerely,
Rachel Seifer
