Parent Association

The Parents’ Association (PA) is a group of parent volunteers who wish to enhance the school experience for students, families and staff of St. Mary’s Academy. The PA organizes events, programs and extras for the school at large. The events are meant to bring the students, staff and families of St. Mary’s closer together to enhance the “family feeling” we have worked so hard to achieve. The PA also sponsors teacher wish lists to help add to the classroom learning experience. The annual magazine drive and family dues supply the funding for all our events and sponsorships. The PA works to help students experience fun at St. Mary’s Academy and create lasting memories that go “Beyond the Desk.”
