The Harwinton Consolidated School Parent Teacher Association acts as a dynamic support group dedicated to sustaining high quality education in our school.  The PTA funds special programs and activities as well as the purchase of supplementary classroom materials.  PTA funds are mainly raised through membership fees, a fall fund-raiser, and Scholastic book fairs. 

The PTA is actively looking for parents to participate in their activities.  Whether you have a lot of time, or just a little, please join the HCS PTA.  If you would like to be a part of this group, enhancing the education of the children at HCS, please contact Sue Geissler, PTA President at 404-0574 or come to one of the monthly meetings. They need your support, please join today!
