About the HHPTG

The Parent Teacher Group was created for the purpose of providing programs to enhance the education of the children at the three elementary schools in our district.

We work to foster communication between the parents, teachers and school administration so as to achieve a quality education for the elementary school students.  PTG provides an avenue of input regarding various programs instituted by the School Board, Administration and our teachers.

We provide the children, teachers and administration with many services, which enhance the Haddon Heights educational environment.  The PTG puts over $20,000 back into Haddon Heights Elementary Schools!
