About the Parent-Teacher Association
 

The objectives of this association are:

- To help parents and teachers acquire a profound appreciation of the ideals of Catholic  Education.

- To promote a clearer understanding of the mutual educational responsibilities of parents and teachers.

- To encourage the home and school to a greater degree of cooperation in discharging responsibilities.

- To subsidize the additional funds needed to provide a quality Catholic Education.


Each parent is a member of the Parent Teacher Association. We therefore ask that:


- Parents set a good example for their children by the practice of their faith. If they are Catholics, they are expected to take part regularly in Mass and the sacramental life of the Church.

- At least one parent, preferably both, should attend the PTA meetings and participate in all PTA functions and fundraisers.

-
Whenever possible, parents are asked to serve as volunteers serving lunches or chairing a fundraiser, etc.

- Annual PTA membership dues are $10.00 per family and are to be paid in September.

- Each family is requested to comply with all school regulations.

Parents’ Requirements

Tuition
Follow the tuition payments as scheduled.  Parishioners must support the parish.

Playground
Once during the school year, one parent or another adult representing the parent is required to help the teacher supervise the playground during lunch hour - 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 Noon.  Parents who do not respect nor fulfill playground responsibilities are asked to pay $25.00 so a replacement can be obtained.

PTA Fundraisers
Parents must support all PTA fundraisers.  No child is permitted to solicit door to door. 

A list of PTA fundraisers is distributed at the first PTA meeting.  Since this is a supplement to tuition costs, parents are responsible to either sell items or tickets or purchase them personally.
