Parents Corner
"Parents are the first teachers of their child in the ways of faith."
The primary purpose of St. George Home & School Committee is to promote a positive learning environment and quality education for our students.
The Home & School Association is fundamentally an educational organization whose purpose is to:
- advance the Catholic education and welfare of all St. George School students
- promote parent-school activities
- increase interest in education and community
Objectives:
-
to facilitate a working relationship between families, school administrators and teachers at St. George School.
-
to encourage active participation from the parents and staff at St. George School.
-
to provide linkage between teachers, administrators and the community at large to ensure that every child at St. George School will receive unsurpassed opportunities for learning.
-
to provide financial assistance to help fill in the budget gap between the district funding and what St. George School needs to excel.
-
to provide opportunities for all parents and staff to share ideas relating to St. George School.
The Home & School Association runs many successful events throughout the school year, some of which include Friday Fish Fries, book fairs, $10-10 raffle and our annual Christmas Bazaar.
The funds that we raise from these fundraisers are carefully allocated to best support the curriculum and the needs of the students and staff of St. George. With a tight school budget, the efforts of the Home & School Association are key in helping to provide our students and staff with all the opportunities they so greatly deserve.
It is the amazing parent volunteers who help make our organization so successful. Please check the schedule of Home and School events, mark your calendars, and plan to join us in making this year successful.
For additional information please feel free to contact your Home & School officers.

Active Parishioners
Since there is no tuition for members of St. George parish, parishioners are expected to tithe to the parish. A suggested contribution for the year, is suggested by the school board and set by the parish council and is made known to the parents. The suggested contribution is calculated on twelve months beginning in September.

Tuition for a non-Catholic family who wishes that their child attend St. George School will be assessed the cost per student for the current school year. Other fees will be in addition to the tuition fee. One-half of the tuition fee will be due the first day of school and the remainder one-half will be due January 1.

Virtues in Practice (VIP) is a program for children in grades pre-kindergarten to grow in virtues and see the virtues as concrete expressions of their Catholic faith. It is set up in such a way that a whole school studies the same virtue each month, to provide a whole-school (and at home, whole family) focus. The program covers 27 vitues over a three-year cycle.
These three years emphasize and are names for the three theological virtues: Faith, Hope, & Charity.
