What is PPO?

  • A PPO is a Panther Parent Organization. It is a group of parents that just want to help at LHHS. Whenever there is a need, the PPO is asked to help.
  • It can include Teacher Appreciation of time or money, providing snacks and supplies for staff, and assisting the front office team as needed.
  • Communication will be through school newsletters, our Facebook page, and GroupMe text group.
  • It is not a PTO or PTA - Unlike a PTO or PTA, there are no dues or general meetings. No formal bank account or tax designation.

Everyone is Welcome!
