Our History
The Parent Association began in 1981 after a conversation with Headmaster Jack Rose and parent Patricia Welfare who asked how she could assist. After organizing a Christmas luncheon for students and faculty, it soon became apparent that it was necessary (and beneficial!) to have parent volunteers. The first Parents’ Support Association was created shortly thereafter.

Joining the PA
Run entirely by volunteers, the Parent Association (PA) is a valued part of the HTS community and is involved in school life through fundraising (or “fun-raising”!), community-building events, and the PA Champion program. Parents can also volunteer to be a Grade Parent and connect with our community through Grade Chats.
The cornerstone of our community is our families who come together we build upon the foundation of those connected to this vibrant, inclusive and joyful school. One of the best ways to get involved is to volunteer.
Our volunteers connect with other parents, gain a better understanding of the school and create lifelong friendships. Contact the Community Relations and Development department to get involved today.
Special Events
Information about special events is typically communicated through the school's weekly newsletter, SpotligHTS, alongside the Community Relations and Development (CRD) department.
The CRD team is your best point of contact for information regarding contributions to fundraising initiatives or special events.
