Want to get involved?

The Parent Teacher Organization is looking for help with the following:

Playground Enhancements - We're looking to add some play options to both of our playgrounds and could use a parent or two to help organize and plan ideas and to communicate with the teacher collecting ideas from Horn staff.

Building Artwork - Do you have an eye for design, a heart for showcasing student artwork, or ideas to increase Horn school's warm and welcoming environment?  Horn has money already set aside to help decorate the walls inside the school and add ways to display student artwork.  A small group of parents and teachers are needed to begin making plans.

Spring Kids Kreations Artwork Fundraiser - Each year, the Horn art teacher helps the students produce a piece of artwork that is used for this fundraiser.  Families can order a variety of items with their student's artwork on it.  A coordinator is needed to contact Kids Kreations to schedule the fundraiser and work with the art teacher to get artwork collected.
