The Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is committed to the core values of the parish. Our overall mission is to help everyone be in the know to love our school, and serve others to grow our school.
This active group is the connector between the school and families to enhance education and stewardship for all. The PTO sponsors events that build community and generate funds. With these funds, we support parents, teachers, and students with additional resources in the classroom: including technology and materials, and support facility improvements.
Together we can do more!
