The Haude PTO is led by parents who give their evenings so the school year has its best moments. Every one of them started the way you might: by showing up to one event and deciding to come back. Here is who they are and what each of them does.
Photos will be added as the board sends them. All board email goes to one shared inbox.

The board meets once a month at Haude. Members are welcome, and members with voting privileges can cast their vote on items brought before the membership at general meetings. If you cannot make a meeting, the secretary's minutes are available on request.
One inbox for everything: membership, volunteering, events, sponsorship, or interest in serving on next year's board.
Start by coming to a meeting or joining a committee. When the board begins planning for the next school year, it invites members who are interested in serving to email haudeelementarypto@gmail.com. Any member in good standing may express interest.
