Parent Teacher Organization
All parents with children at Saint Benedict Catholic School are automatically members of the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO).
While the PTO is known for helping raise funds to benefit the school community and hosting community-building events, the PTO also strives to promote and encourage Catholic standards of family life through family-centered events and parent-education programs.
Stay tuned to the weekly newsletter and the school calendar for upcoming PTO meetings so you can plan to attend!
Parent Service Hours
With a school of our size, we need every family to volunteer their time and talents. Parent Service Hours allow for adequate staffing of PTO sponsored events and other programs that benefit our school while helping to keep tuition costs down. It also helps create a family atmosphere that makes Saint Benedict special.
All families are automatic members of the PTO, and by being involved, we achieve the following goals:
1. To foster a sense of camaraderie and community amongst families through social events.
2. To fundraise in meaningful ways for the benefit of the school community.
3. To offer hospitality to the various people, groups and programs that represent SBCS.
4. To support the faculty and staff.
In order to accomplish these goals, we ask all Saint Benedict families to perform a minimum of 20 service hours throughout the school year. Any parent, legal guardian, grandparent or immediate family member over the age of 18 years of age may volunteer in fulfillment of this obligation. Current students at the school cannot participate in this program.
Please refer to our PTO Service Hour Form information for details on buying-out, what counts towards your service hours, reporting your hours, and more.
