Parents

At Saint Philip School, we believe that the education of students is a partnership between the school and the parents. Parents are an important part of the Saint Philip School community.

Volunteerism is high and the number of parents actively involved in the Cardinals Club continues to grow each year. The school’s library, room parent, and lunch programs benefit greatly from their dedication and commitment. As chaperones for field trips and school socials, parents and grandparents enhance the educational and social experiences of all.

Family gatherings, father/daughter and mother/son evenings, bowling outings, and fundraising events are but a few of the many activities sponsored by the Cardinals Club each year. Meetings are held one evening each month starting in September and ending in June.  Please refer to your school calendar for exact dates. All parents are invited to attend and to share their time, talent, and treasure for the benefit of the school community.

Parent Ambassadors

Parent Ambassadors are integral to the mission of Saint Philip School.  Our Parent Ambassadors are experienced school parents who offer the benefit of their wisdom, guidance, and information about the school by volunteering at open house events and connecting with new and prospective families.  Parent Ambassadors are an invaluable source of support, warmth, and welcome to all, and a true blessing to our school community!
