HARRISON COLLEGE
Parent-Teacher Association
We are committed to working with the Secretary-Treasurer's Office, the Board and the Staff to enhance and better equip the school's campus. The ideas for these projects are as a result of exhibited need, as well as parents' and teachers' suggestions. They are facilitated through our fundraising drives, our PTA dues and timely donations by parents, alumni and corporate Barbados.
