Welcome to the start of another great school year at St. Paul’s Catholic School!

Whether you are new to the PTA or a returning member, we thank you for your contribution, time, and commitment to our organization, our teachers, and most importantly our students.  The St. Paul’s PTA is looking forward to again providing enriching and enjoyable programs and activities for the students and families of St. Paul’s.  We continue supporting “old favorites,” such as Oyster Roast, charity Christmas trees, Breakfast with Santa, Catholic Schools Week, and Teacher Appreciation Week.  Last year was our first year participating in the Jacksonville Beach Deck the Chairs event and we will again this year.  It was awesome seeing our school represented in a local holiday favorite event.
 
I would like to thank a few key parents who really helped the PTA last year by taking charge of some of our bigger events.  We couldn’t do it without these parents!  Kristen Berengolts and Alexis Newman for their continued countless hours in making Oyster Roast a success.  Kara Waite, Stephanie Huntley, Liz and Shawn Parnell for the amazing Deck the Chairs school house.  Finally, Jasmine Ley for all of her help with making Breakfast with Santa a holiday staple for or children.  We truly rely on all of our parents to volunteer to really make our school stand out and be the best that we can be!

“Be informed, Be Active, Be your kid’s biggest fan.  Be PTA.” 

Oyster Roast is our largest fundraiser and we raised over $100,000 last year.  These funds went toward rebuilding the gym.  We are looking for ideas on where this year’s funds should be allocated.
 
For all our members, please like us on Facebook to stay in the know.  Patricia will be keeping everyone up to date via the Facebook page. 
 
Finally, we are looking for volunteers.  There are many opportunities listed in the left column to help.  We appreciate your time and effort spent making our organization successful.
 
I look forward to working together in the coming year!
