Preserving the Tradition of Excellence at BARD!

The Bard High School Early College (BHSEC) Queens PTA supports the students, parents, and faculty of BHSEC Queens to provide a positive learning environment for our children. There is no cost to join.

Each year, the PTA must raise at least $65,000 to pay for school staff, the Jupiter grading system, club activities, sports uniforms, prom costs, graduation, arts and enrichment programs, and school events. The PTA also covers field trip costs, buses for college trips, and classroom upgrades.
