ASK YOURSELF……….

If there are ways to help your child do better in school would you do it?

If you could raise your child’s test scores, give them better social skills, help them graduate and continue their education would you try?

If there was a program that made students less likely to repeat a grade, be suspended or expelled would you want to know about it?

If I told you that I knew of a way to make a dramatic and significant difference in your child’s education would you ask me how?

THE ANSWER TO ALL THE QUESTIONS ABOVE IS PARENT INVOLVEMENT.

A 30 YEAR STUDY SHOWS ALL OF THE STATEMENTS ABOVE ARE TRUE OF STUDENTS WHOSE PARENTS TAKE AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THEIR EDUCATION.

Which brings us to our warm and encouraging words for the 2009-2010 school year…

WELCOME TO THE PARENTS !!

  The St. Vincent De Paul Parent-Teacher Unit (PTU) is a very active group in the school.  We sponsor many activities for the students.  Examples of some of the activities are bowling parties, dances, bake sales, pixie shop, and haunted hallway, and receptions for penance, confirmation and the first day of school, just to name a few.

The PTU Board could not be so successful without the help of volunteers like you.  Getting involved in the school activities that we have here is a great way to meet new parents, meet the friends of your child and to show your child that you care about the their every day lives at St. Vincent De Paul. 

If you are interested in volunteering, the PTU will send out flyers for many of our activities throughout the year asking for volunteers.  Also you can call any one of the board members at any time to ask about volunteering (names and phone numbers are listed below).

Thank you for choosing St. Vincent De Paul for your child and we hope to see you at our many events this school year.
