Parent’s Club

The purpose of the Parent’s Club is to maintain good communication between home and school, provide a vehicle through which parents can contribute time, treasure, and talent to the school, offer a mechanism for parent education, and serve as a structure for political action when needed.

The club’s most important service is to coordinate volunteer signup. This provides the school with assistance, and parents are able to enjoy working the required 50 family hours. We have a great number of volunteer opportunities such as: Office Help, Scrip Sales, Star Siblings, Jog-a-Thon, Cookie Baking, Friday Folders, Scope Auction, Advent Store, Used Uniforms, Sweatshirt Sales, Library Help, Hospitality Sunday, Cleaner-Uppers, and Sport Coaches. Contact the office or a Parent’s Club officer to find out more information.

Parent’s Club works to make every new and returning family feel welcomed and cherished. We oversee the Thanksgiving Food Drive, the Teacher Appreciation Luncheon, Advent Store, and sell recycled uniforms and new sweatshirts. We provide positive information and publicity for the school.

All parents and guardians of students attending Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic School are members of the Parent’s Club. The Parent’s Club Board consists of: President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer. The Board is elected in the Spring by the members of the Parent’s Club.

The Parent’s Club meets once a month, October through May. Meeting dates and times are noted in the school newsletter or on the monthly calendar.
