Parents
Parents are an integral part of the parish and our school community. Below you will find information about the Parent Support Group and Local School Council.


Parent Support Group

What does the Parents' Support Group do?
We organize large fundraisers such as the Hot Lunch Program and Musical Theatre Program. We also organize and host annual events such as Halloween Howl and the Tiki Tiki Fun Fair. Watch for other fundraising opportunities like monthly bake sales, and the Used Uniform Shop. All proceeds are used to provide financial assistance for school programs, equipment, and recreational activities. We provide access to educational materials in the Parent Resource Center and foster community spirit within the school.
