2025-2026 HSA Board

The SOMS HSA Board is a committed team of parents, teachers, and administrators who work together to support our school through fundraising, event planning, and community-building efforts. They also help promote open communication between families and school staff to ensure a strong, connected school community.

We welcome all SOMS families to join the HSA—no experience needed! Whether you help from home or at an event, there's a role for everyone. To get involved, email somshsapres@gmail.com.  See Board Responsibilities.

For general inquiries, please contact the HSA at somshsaquestions@gmail.com. Your message will be forwarded to the appropriate member. To reach the HSA presidents directly, email somshsapres@gmail.com.
