Welcome to the Lake Highlands Area Early Childhood PTA!

Our Story

The Lake Highlands Area Early Childhood PTA (LHAECPTA) began with a simple idea, that the early years of parenthood are better when shared. Since our founding 1959, we've grown into a vibrant, supportive community for families with children from birth through the summer of Kindergarten.

Parenting small children can feel overwhelming, isolating, or just plain exhausting. LHAECPTA is here to change that. We create space for connection, for playdates in the park, moms’ nights out, stroller walks, book clubs, and backyard bubbles. We also offer opportunities to learn and grow through speaker events, service projects, and educational support.

While our events are geared toward little ones ages 0 to 6, our heart is with the whole family. Whether you're a first-time parent, a seasoned pro, or new to Lake Highlands, LHAECPTA is your place to meet neighbors, build friendships, and make memories that last.

We believe that strong communities start with connected families. We’re proud to offer scholarships, host inclusive events, and give back to local schools and programs.

Join us and be part of a legacy of laughter, learning, and lasting friendships, one playdate at a time.
