What Does the PTA Do?

In addition to supporting our school through volunteering, NHE PTA raises money each year for programs, staff support, and so much more.  These items are part of our NHE PTA Budget, which is voted on annually, at the year end meeting, by the NHE PTA membership. 

 

At the end of each fiscal year (July1-June30), any funds that were not needed for the budget and are not required to roll over to the following year's budget may be allocated as "Designated Funds" to support the students and school upon approval of the NHE PTA membership and in line with the rules of PTA and Richardson ISD.

During the 23-24 school year Northwood Hills Elementary  PTA will fund and organize:

  • Gifts for ALL the staff for the holidays
