Who are we?

We are a group of TMHS parent volunteers. The PAC is organized to aid and support academic success for all students.  The PAC acts as a liaison between parents/guardians and administrators for the purpose of understanding and extending the  goals of the school. The PAC will strive to lessen the burden of the Government by providing funds and support to all students at Tewksbury Memorial High School.
