Established in 1939, the Harford County Council of PTA serves as a resource for local PTA leaders in Harford County. Our mission is to provide guidance, support, and training through advocacy based activities to all local PTA leaders, families, staff, students, and community members. We serve as a liaison between the local units and Free State PTA.
HCCPTA is a 100% volunteer organization. We partner with Harford County Public Schools (HCPS) and solicit parent/caregiver, student, and community interest in HCPS-led task forces and committees. Through our website, Facebook page and other communication outlets we advocate for community participation in HCCPTA Trainings, HCPS workshops and events, HCPS Board of Education, Harford County Council and County Executive meetings.
The HCCPTA works in good faith to educate and uphold the National PTA Mission, Values and Purposes.
