A to Z DIRECTORY

You should have received an email last week, asking you to verify your information on the A to Z app – our PTSA Directory. Please take 5 minutes to ensure we have the most up-to-date information for your family. 
If you have a username/password from last year, you can bypass the password reset process and access the directory directly by visiting login.atozconnect.com. You will still be asked to verify your information. 
You can also access the online directory by downloading the A to Z app to your Apple or Android device.
*Please note: Only PTSA members will have access to A to Z after October 31, as we fund this service with a portion of PTSA dues.* 
Please email mamkhsptsa@gmail.com with any directory questions.
