H-HCRTA
Welcome to Houston-Harris County Retired Teachers
We are an active group of retired school employees who work for the well being of our members, our community, and our schools. As members of the Texas Retired Teachers Association, we serve as advocates for all retired school employees to the Texas State Legislature and the Teacher Retirement System.
The Children's Book Project is a major project that we participate in to provide books for children in Houston. Each year we also give scholarships to high school graduates of our members' descendants. We present interesting programs beneficial to retirees at our meetings. We also plan field trips and other fun activities.
We meet the fourth Thursday of the month September through May at 1:00pm at Bayland Community Center. Our December meeting is a Christmas Luncheon.
We welcome the membership of all retired school employees, their families, and anyone interested in public education and willing to work to achieve the objectives of TRTA and H-HCRTA.
You can find us on Facebook www.facebook.com/HHCRTA or contact us through email at houstonharrisc@gmail.com.
