2020-2021 PTA Board


We are currently seeking nominations for PTA Board members for next school year.  We know this can sound like a huge commitment, and if you are interested, we strongly encourage you to seek more information by talking with current board members, who can give great insight about what being a Board member entails, or reading through the Board position descriptions on our website, hcespta.com, under documents and forms. 

All positions are accepting nominations, so please contact hcespta01@gmail.com if you are interested in being on our Board, and a member of the nominating committee will contact you!  This would be a great time to jump on Board if you have been considering it in the past!

Any current PTA member in good standing may be considered for a position, and you can self-nominate or nominate a friend (with their approval, of course!)


Proposed Legislation for School Calendars

HB 411 was introduced on March 5, 2020.  If enacted, it would require an 11 week summer for all public school students in the State of Alabama.  The text of the bill can be read HERE

We encourage all our parents to make their voice heard.  You may contact our representative Howard Sanderford at 334-261-0444 or hs1989@aol.com
 HCMS Dance Team Tryouts
POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
Students currently in 5th grade are invited to try out for the Middle School Dance team!


Please contact  Ashlee Hebert at hamptoncovemiddledance@gmail.com for more information.
 
Volunteer Opportunities

The sign up for library volunteers is up. Most important are Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday mornings, since our library aide isn't there those days.  Volunteers scan the books out to the students, check books in and shelve the books as time permits.  Please consider working a shift in our library.  
Please note - if you can only work a portion of the shift listed, that is ok.  We appreciate all the help we can get!
