About our PTSA
The overall purpose of the PTSA is to make every child's potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children. We were proud to be honored with the highest award a PTA can obtain during the 2017-2018 school year, the Exemplary Award, and we strive to earn this award again for 2018-2019. PTSA supports PAHS through information programs, educational grants, student scholarships, arts in education, staff appreciation events, and student events like CavFest and our annual All Night Grad Fest.
