REMINDER: PTSA memberships need to be renewed each year!
Join the RRHS PTSA or renew your membership to show your support for the students, staff, and entire RRHS community!
Membership dues go towards faculty grants, student organization grants, senior scholarships, family programs, the Reflections program, Dragon Force Community Service program, staff appreciation, general campus support, and much more!
Your membership also comes with opportunities to get involved and connect with our school community. We would love to have you volunteer with us when your time allows, but volunteering is not required to be a PTSA member. Simply joining is a meaningful way to support RRHS and our students!
We are still seeking 2026–2027 Executive Board Members!

The Clothes Closet is a service project sponsored by the Round Rock ISD Council of PTAs. The program provides gently used clothing, as well as new socks and underwear, to Round Rock ISD students in need.
All students attending any of the 56 Round Rock ISD schools are eligible to receive services. If you need services, see the school nurse or your counselor for a voucher.
The Clothes Closet has two locations: Voigt Elementary and Anderson Mill Elementary. The Clothes Closet is always looking for volunteers and donations.
To learn more about the Round Rock ISD Clothes Closet and to find out how to donate gently used clothing or monetary donations, please visit the RRISD Council of PTAs Clothes Closet website.
Dragon Excellence Supporters
Partner with the Round Rock High School PTSA as a Dragon Excellence Supporter for the 2026–2027 school year! Your sponsorship gives your business valuable exposure to the 3,800+ students and their families that make up the RRHS community, while directly supporting programs, events, and initiatives that benefit our students, teachers, and entire school community.
Your support helps us create meaningful experiences for our Dragons and show our teachers and staff how much our community appreciates them. At the same time, your business gets the opportunity to put its name in front of thousands of local families and demonstrate your commitment to the Round Rock community.

Dragon Force
Dragon Force is a student community service program that encourages and recognizes volunteerism among RRHS students. Its mission is to raise awareness of community needs, connect students with volunteer opportunities, and promote a culture of service.
RRHS students who are PTSA Student Members and complete at least 80 service hours by the spring of their senior year will qualify for a service honor cord.
Important 2026–2027 Dragon Force Dates
September 30, 2026: Deadline to submit Summer Service Hours
April 12, 2027: Deadline for seniors to submit their service hours to earn their service cord.
May 27, 2027: Deadline for underclassmen to turn in their service hours from the current school year.
To receive an honor cord, students must be an RRHS PTSA member each year they attend RRHS.
Transition Plan (Grandfathering):
Class of 2030 (Freshmen this year): Must maintain PTSA membership all four years.
Class of 2029 & 2028 (Sophomores & Juniors): Grandfathered under the previous policy. PTSA membership is only required during their senior year, though membership in earlier years is strongly encouraged.
Class of 2027 (Seniors): Must be a PTSA member during their senior year and complete the 80-hour volunteer requirement.
Why the change? Dragon Force is a PTSA-sponsored recognition program, and annual memberships help fund the honor cords and other student programs while supporting the RRHS community.

Teacher and Staff Appreciation
On August 10, RRHS PTSA hosted the Welcome Back Breakfast for teachers and staff.
A huge THANK YOU to all of the volunteers and families who donated to our Hospitality Fund. Your generosity and support helped make this special morning possible! And a big shoutout to HTeaO Round Rock - Brushy Creek for providing the delicious tea and beverages for our event!
Another huge THANK YOU to A Place at Home North Austin for donating three (3) single-serve coffee makers and coffee pods to RRHS PTSA. RRHS teachers and staff loved brewing their very own cups of coffee at an event on August 11! And, these coffee makers will be a great addition to our future hospitality events for teachers and staff!
PTSA hosts multiple hospitality events each year for teachers and staff. Please consider donating to the Hospitality Fund to help us make these events possible.
