Home & School Association

Welcome to Our Home and School Association!   Here are just a few of the things we do to benefit St. Mary Catholic School:

The Home and School organization is the parent group of the school that helps organize the volunteers and activities within the school. The six officers, who include the president, vice-president, recording secretary, corresponding secretary, and treasurer comprise the executive committee.  Members of the executive committee are nominated by the board or the members at large and voted upon by the general membership. 

All parents of students, as well as staff, are considered members of Home and School.
There are no dues. We meet monthly (meeting times are determined annually by the incoming board).

  • Provide parents, teachers, and parishioners opportunities to work together for the benefit of the students
  • Serve as a vehicle of communication between the home and the school
  • Organize school volunteer programs
  • Sponsor academic projects and various activities
  • Raise funds to meet school needs and educational materials and equipment

Officers:
President: Allison Dunlap
Vice-President: Elizabeth Black
Treasurer: Christa Benson
Recording Secretary: Kaelly Erb
Corresponding Secretary: Kaitlyn Bielic
Board Member at Large: Emma Yeager
Teacher Liasons: Katie Offenberger and Meredith Becker

How Can You Help?

We welcome the involvement of student families and our parish family!  Please consider giving your time and talents to one of our many activities or fundraisers.

Fundraisers like fall and spring flower sales, Santa Shop, and the book fair provide much needed funds for the school, which means improved educational materials and equipment for your child’s classroom.  We even try to fund teacher wish lists when possible!  Volunteering to organize one of these fundraisers or encouraging friends and family to participate in them is a great way to get involved in your child’s education.

By participating in Home and School activities and fundraisers, you’re making St. Mary’s School the best environment it can be for your child.

Working parents can help too!  There are many things that can be done to help with Home and School functions behind the scenes at home.  See any Home and School officer for more details!
