HSA

Bradford Heights Home & School Association

You may have heard of parent-teacher organizations at other schools referred to as the “PTA” or “PTO.” In our school district, we call it “Home & School.” Each school in the district has its own Home and School Association.

The Home & School is a non-profit organization led by an Executive Board. The Executive Board is comprised of a President, Vice President, Treasurer, Vice-Treasurer, and Secretary. The HSA Executive board is comprised of parent volunteers from current Bradford Heights students.

Board of Directors for 2023-2024 School Year

The Home and School Association supports Bradford Heights by strengthening parent-to-parent relationships and parent-to-school relationships through a variety of efforts and events. In all things, the Home and School Association aims to:

Open lines of communication between faculty, staff, and our families in order to encourage community involvement in school activities.
Promote the overall growth and well-being of our children
Offer opportunities to enrich our school programs and activities for all children and their families.
Provide community representation at the District level through the Joint Home and School Association

In order to meet these objectives, the Home & School enhances the student experience by providing many activities and services to the school which are not provided by the school district. The Home & School pays for assemblies, field trips for each student, playground equipment, Fall & Spring activities, Scholastic memberships for classrooms, and much more.

Ways to get Involved with the HSA

Ways to get involved with the HSA

The Home & School also provides opportunities for parents and guardians to volunteer and participate in their child’s education.

The HSA supports several annual fundraisers:

The Bradford Heights Outgrown Sale (one in Spring and one in the Fall)
Fall Festival
Pizza Bingo
The Talent Show, etc.

Those are just a few of the activities supported by the HSA to raise funds that directly support our school. Parents and guardians are encouraged to volunteer their time whenever possible.

If you’re interested in joining a committee, please contact a board member. We couldn’t do it without the volunteers that assist with these events! Even if you can only donate a little bit of time, every little bit helps!

Together we can achieve our common goals of supporting our children, the school, and the entire Bradford Heights school community. Go Bulldogs!

Fundraising

Boosterthon

Donations are open! If your family is not in a position to financially support the school right now, you can still be involved by SHARING about our fundraiser with friends and extended family online at MyBooster.com. Sharing IS supporting!

Check out these fun incentives we’re working towards:

$10,000 Goal = Kona Ice Truck
Every grade level that reaches 65% registered on MyBooster.com = Extra Recess

Box Tops

Instead of clipping from packages and checking expiration dates, all Box Tops will be earned digitally by scanning your receipt. The Box Tops for Education team has worked hard to build a NEW-and-improved, user-friendly Box Tops mobile app, available now. Money earned from Box Tops directly benefits the students at Bradford Heights.
