St. Mel School Parent Club
The St. Mel Parent Club, as part of the CSAC Parent Engagement Committee and working closely with the Advancement Team, provides financial assistance, directs school programs, and organizes and moderates most of the school’s volunteer services. All parents or guardians of students in St. Mel School are members of the St. Mel Parent Club with annual dues payable at registration.
The Parent Club Board includes the President, President-Elect, First Vice President, Second Vice President, Recording Secretary, Treasurer, PR Secretary, Hospitality Coordinator, and Spirit Wear Coordinator. In addition, each TK-8th grade class has a Parent Club Ambassador who is the liaison between the Parent Club and the parents/guardians in each grade. The dates of the monthly meetings are on the school website.
Parent Club’s primary role is to raise money to augment the school’s operating budget in order to keep tuition affordable. Each year, planned fundraising offsets approximately $1,000 of tuition per family. Parent Club plans fundraisers and events both big and small throughout the school year so that every family can join in the fun, volunteer, and participate at a level that works for them.
