The Malibu High School Parent Teacher Student Association (MHS PTSA) is a unit of the National PTA organization. Advocating for all school children is the core of its mission. 

At MHS, the PTSA creates an annual budget of roughly $150,000 that is underwritten by the Malibu High Shark Fund.  Additional monies are raised at the Annual Tennis Tournament and by the Scrip program that uses local grocery store loyalty programs to raise supplemental funds.

The MHS PTSA provides volunteer and financial support for dozens of academic related programs. Your PTSA dues pay for classroom supplies, field trips, teacher grants, professional development, college and career services, science and technology programs, the library, the copy center, the website, parent education, family and multicultural events, staff appreciation, student honors, graduation ceremonies and district support.

PTSA volunteers work in the copy center, organize parent welcome events, participate in Parent Eyes (monitoring campus activity), chaperone school events, organize the annual Tennis Tournament and Luncheon, and supervise the Scrip program.  PTSA volunteers also create and sponsor a monthly newsletter and the MHS Student Directory to assist in school-to-family communication. Parent education programs are organized every other month and provide great opportunities for new parents to meet others and become involved in the school.

The MHS PTSA holds five association meetings per a year, generally occurring on the third Thursday of the month in the MHS Library. All are welcome, though voting privileges are limited to PTSA members. Membership is open to all parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, students and supporters of Malibu High School.  Dues are $6.50 annually.
