MEETINGS & PROGRAMS

​The Austin High School PTSA is not just about fundraising for the academic support of our teachers and the academic success of our children. We also want to emphasize our role in providing educational opportunities beyond the classroom walls.  These opportunities happen through out the year and are part of the PTSA Parent/Student Educational Programming Series.
