SCHOOL SUPPLY PACKS

PTA has a limited number of pre-packaged school supply packs available for purchase. You can buy supply packs regardless of whether your child is doing in-person or virtual school.

Visit the "STORE" section of the website to buy supply packs. We also hope you'll join the PTA and help support our local and state efforts to support students!

All supply packs can be picked up from the school during our 'drive through' supply pick-up, which is scheduled for Tuesday, August 18 from 3:30pm to 6:00pm.

Please plan to show a copy of your receipt or an ID showing the name of the person who placed the order when you drive up on Tuesday. Only orders that were placed and paid for by the deadlines (August 14 for cash/check, or August 16 for credit/debit orders) will be available for pick-up. No onsite sales will be available, so please order and pay in advance.

Please email president@hppmpta.org if you have any questions about PTA supply packs.

If you wish to purchase supplies yourself, you can download the supply list in English or Spanish.

STOCK UP ON SPIRIT WEAR!

The Spirit Store is now open! Visit https://hppmbobcats2020.itemorder.com/ to order your Bobcat gear! The store will be open through September 7. Items can be shipped to you, or delivered to your child's classroom once in-person school resumes.
