How Can I Join?

Joining the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations is quite simple:

• call or e-mail the OFHSA office (905-308-9563) or info@ofhsa.on.ca) to have an information package sent out to you
• read through the material and, when you are ready, call to set up a meeting with an experienced member in your area to meet with parents (and the school principal if she or he is available) in your school
• you need a minimum of 6 parents in your school to form a new Home & School association

Once you have decided to join:

• set up an organizational meeting with an OFHSA volunteer
• sign up your charter members
• set bylaws for your association (we can provide a sample that has worked for many other associations)
• collect your first annual membership fees
• send your list of charter members and their fees to the office
• you will receive copies of the OFHSA constitution and bylaws, the policy document, association and president's guidelines, an executive skills handbook and your new charter to post in your school.
