PARENT ASSOCIATION
Education is a Collaborative Effort
OUR PURPOSE
We believe education is a collaborative effort. Our teachers support students’ development outside of school as well, and they often attend performances and athletic events. Equally important is the contribution of our many dedicated parents. Our very active and involved Parent Association hosts events such as Trunk-or-Treat, the Sweetheart Dance, book fairs, and parent socials. They volunteer throughout the school and serve as mystery readers, helping the teachers with classroom supplies and displays, and coordinating special events for the students.
Every parent and guardian of a student attending St. Benedict's is automatically a member of the Parent Association (PA). The PA is only as successful as the parents who donate their time, talents, and treasure. We hope you will join us in one of the many amazing opportunities we have to support our school and our children. The purpose of the PA is to:
-
Foster Community: The PA, in coordination with parent volunteers, shall organize and present opportunities for members to gather in a manner that enhances the sense of community surrounding the school, including social events.
-
Show Appreciation: The PA shall express the appreciation of the parents for the administration, faculty and staff of the school.
-
Communications: The PA shall serve as a conduit for information to flow to and from the parent body, faculty and the administration of the school.
-
Raise Money: The PA shall raise money through parent contribution and outside solicitation of funds to enable community and appreciation efforts to occur and to augment the resources available to the school.
Volunteer Opportunities
There are many ways to be active and engaged at St. Benedict’s. The PA needs help from parents to pull off our family events and teacher appreciation programs!
