Welcome to the St. Patrick’s School Advisory Board
The St. Patrick’s School Board is a voluntary committee that functions as an advisory board to the principal and the pastor. The board’s responsibilities include input and decision making for policy, academics, finance, planning and marketing.
As a representative body we solicit parent input on issues of importance to our school. Parents who would like to have issues reviewed by the Board should submit a letter in writing to the current Chair. The issue will be reviewed by the pastor, principal and Chair and, if deemed to be a school board responsibility, will be added to the monthly agenda. The board meets every third Friday of the month from September through June. The Board hosts a public meeting throughout the year.
