Family Involvement

Several parent groups work to support and enhance the St. Mary School community. These groups organize family events, provide financial resources to our school through fundraising, and share their time and talents through numerous volunteer experiences.

• Home and School Organization – Primary function is fundraising for equipment and
  programs not provided by tuition monies. All parents are welcome to attend the
  meetings.

• Marketing Committee – Works to promote St. Mary School and to achieve and maintain
  student enrollments in grades 4K through 8.

• Athletic Association – Volunteers help with concessions, running the scoreboard, and
  keeping stats. Fundraising is done to purchase items to support the athletic programs.

At St. Mary, we believe that parent/community involvement benefits everyone: from students and staff to parents and community members. There are many opportunities to get involved—and every act of volunteerism is appreciated. Our many volunteer opportunities include:
