It is that time of year to show our Appreciation for the Teachers & Staff at Herndon Middle School!  The PTA will be hosting a luncheon on Thursday, May 10th during all 4 lunch periods.  Please mark your calendars and plan to help out during this great event. 

We will need volunteers to help set-up @ 9:30AM and then serve during the first 2 lunches.  We will also need parents to come in around 11:30 to serve during 2 lunches and to help with clean-up. 

We are currently working to have a main pasta dish donated by a local restaurant and we will have a Chocolate Fountain donated by Hilary Bradley - The Chocolate Chick.  See link above to VolunteerSpot where you can sign up to volunteer and/or donate food items, drinks, and desserts.  We are also looking for donations of Gift Cards and other small gift items to raffle off during each lunch. Thanks for your support.

Welcome to the Herndon Middle School PTA website!  The PTA is focused on helping to "Build Community" at Herndon Middle School (HMS). We have a wonderful Principal, Mrs. Justine Klena, who, along with the support of an amazing administration team and faculty, is motivated to do everything she can to make HMS a great environment for our children.  Our goal at the PTA is to come along side Mrs. Klena and her team and support them in any way that we can.
