The PTACHC (PTA Council of Howard County) is the local PTAs organized under the authority of the state PTA for the purpose of conference, leadership training, coordination of efforts, support and assistance of the local PTAs. Councils are an effective means of unifying PTA activities and collaborating on projects in the community and school district. Longfellow has two delegates that attend monthly PTACHC meetings and report back to our school community on local and current happenings in our community.
