Parent Organization
The Parent Organization in this school is called PAC
(Parents At the Center of education). This organization focuses on the academic and moral development of children.
Booster Club is a supportive arm of PAC that is interested in the growth of the sports program at Most Pure Heart of Mary
Parents are expected to:
Be involved from attendance at general PAC meetings to meeting teachers
Be financially supportive helping with fund raisers, securing matching funds from employers and obtaining direct grants that benefit the school.
Being a volunteer at Heart of Mary is vital to its growth. Opportunities for daily service exist in the lunchroom, on the playgrounds and in the classrooms. One hour a week can make a difference. A parent’s presence demonstrates interest and support.
Parent education programs are offered throughout the year.
School bulletins are sent home to provide monthly updates on current programs and calendar items
