2025-2026 Volunteer Opportunities
Hough PTSA is a 100% volunteer-run organization. We rely on volunteers from the community, student's family members, and even students to help plan, organize, and execute all of our events and programs.
Are you interested in helping plan an event or program? Join a Committee!
Committees are where all the discussions are had about the planning and execution of events; everything from theme and snacks to sponsors and donations. Open committees include Winter Wonderland, Staff Appreciation, Movie Night, Mileage Club, and Spirit Wear, Carnival, Fundraising, and Yearbook. You can join any time! Interested in joining or learning more? Send us a message.
We encourage each family to try and volunteer at least once during the year. Even one hour of your time can make a huge impact. Volunteering is fun and you get to meet new Hough families!
