Home & School Association

Our Mission
Home and School Association is our version of a PTA. Our mission is to foster a strong partnership between families and the school community to support the academic, spiritual, and social growth of our students. We are dedicated to promoting open communication, encouraging parental involvement, and organizing resources and activities that enhance the educational experience. Together, we strive to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child can thrive and reach their full potential.
