Hanover Parent Teacher Alliance


The Hanover Parent Teacher Alliance (HPTA) raises money to fund crucial academic enrichment for all grade levels within our Hanover Public Schools. The HPTA serves as the Executive Board for the individual PTA’s at each of the 4 schools in Hanover.  Together we work to raise funds, enrich student education and provide fun events for students and families.

We hope that 100% of Hanover families will join the PTA to aid in enhancing the curriculum for all grade levels and to support community building within Hanover Public Schools. Our annual goal is to raise $50,000 through a combination of fundraisers all of which goes directly back to our schools.
 

Fundraisers
The HPTA manages all of the Fundraisers for the Hanover Schools. These include:
           
HPTA Direct Donation Drive: Our Direct donation drive enables parents to make a donation directly to the school (s) of their choice. 100% of their donation goes to the school(s) they designate. They may also donate to the Hanover PTA with an additional $15.00 contribution to help with district wide initiatives. This campaign begins in September with the hopes of collecting all donations by mid-November. However donations are accepted throughout the school year if there is a better time for you to contribute. Raises $12,000-$18,000 annually. To make your donation click the DONATE tab on this website.

Fall Boon Supply and Mrs. Fields Cookies sale:  Beautiful bags, gift wrap, frozen gourmet foods, gifts and other specialty items. This fundraiser is promoted through Hanover Middle School and Hanover High School however all members of the school community are encouraged to participate.  Raises $5,000-$10,000.

Booster Thon Fun Run: This hugely successful fundraiser takes place at both Cedar and Center Elementary Schools In March each year.  Funds are raised through pledges from friends and family for laps run by students. Sponsors are also sought to help with some of the operating costs of this event as well as t-shirts that are gifted to all students and faculty. Raises over $50,000 annually!

Passive Fundraisers
Raise money for our schools through things you do every day!

Box Tops for Education:  An incentive program encouraging parents and students to purchase General Mills Box Tops products all year long and scan grocery receipts for Box Tops credit.  Just download the Box Tops for Education app and scan your receipts every time you shop to get credit for your Box Tops eligible purchases. Earn $.10 for every product you purchase. Checks are cut to each school twice a year. It's that easy!  Raises $3,000-$4,000 each year

Stop and Shop A Plus program: Register your Stop and Shop card with the Stop and Shop A Plus program and a percentage of the money you spend in groceries from October through March will be returned to our schools. Raises $8,000-$10,000 each year.

Amazon Smile: Log in to Amazon Smile every time you shop Amazon. Choose Hanover Parent Teacher Alliance as your preferred charity and a percentage of the money you spend at Amazon will be returned to the HPTA. To date we have raised over $800.00 with this program and hope to triple that number in the coming year!  

Toy Box Shopping Night: Shop local at everyone's favorite specialty toy store The Toy Box. Save the Date for Thursday November 10th and 12th, 2020. 20% of all sales go back to Hanover Schools.
