Honor Someone Who Makes A Difference In The Lives of Children!

Nominations are now open for the Harrington Elementary PTA Honorary Lifetime Membership Awards!

Receiving an Honorary Lifetime Membership Award is one of the highest forms of recognition to let a volunteer know how much we truly appreciate their dedication to our children and the community. Nominees/awardees, while usually a member of PTA, do not have to be a member of PTA, nor must the service for this honor being bestowed be connected with the PTA. The ONLY requirement for receiving this honor is that the recipient has made worthwhile contributions to the wellbeing of children and youth.

For the PTA Extended Service Award, the recipient must have been actively involved in the Texas PTA for 10 years and be a Texas PTA Honorary Life Member.

Who do you think deserves to be recognized at Harrington? Please submit your nominations via this form. You may submit more than one nomination. Nominations are due by Friday, December 5th. https://forms.gle/NSswgi32gUBQFhkw8
