What is the St. Victor Home and School Board?

We are the Parent Organization at St. Victor School. 

The St. Victor Home and School Board is the organization that works to create a strong sense of community for all of our students and their families. The Board is made up of parents and meets monthly with the St. Victor School Principal and a teacher representative.

The Board consists of a President, Vice-President, Treasurer, Secretary, Fundraising Chair, Social Activities Chair and Hospitality Chair. An extension of the Home & School Board is the Social Activities Committee.

What does the Home and School Board and Social Activities Committee do?

The three main areas of concentration are:

• Planning and fund-raising for school needs that might not otherwise be met
• Financial and other support for classroom and student needs
• Activities that foster a connection and an even greater sense of community to bring our students and their families together with each other outside of the normal school day

St. Victor School is extremely fortunate to have a very giving and supportive Parish that assists with operational costs for the school not covered by tuition. The Home & School Board focuses on providing additional support for curriculum and other school programs that enhance the educational and social development of our children. Additional funds are always needed. Your contributions through past and future fundraisers have provided immeasurable assistance to our school.

Thank you for supporting these fund-raising efforts:

• QSP Magazines
• Brunch with Santa
• Butter Braids
• Coffee
• Current
• Bake Sales

The Home & School Board has coordinated these recent donations to St. Victor School that were made possible by YOU as parents that support our school:

• Computers for the classrooms and computer lab, along with a server and annual technology updates and new software programs
• Peaceful Playground program
• Supplying wood chips for the playground (annually)
• Dishwasher in the cafeteria (a benefit to both the parish and school)
• Sinks in the boys and girls first floor bathrooms
• Fifth Grade Graduation contribution (annually)

Funds raised by the Home & School Board also contribute to:

• Daily hot lunch for our wonderful teachers and staff
• An annual allocation for classroom supplies and “extras” for students
• Money for teachers to continue their education (workshops or classes), including a contribution last year for teachers to attend the National Catholic Educators Conference
• School Store (operated by fifth grade class) start-up grant each year

Ask your child’s teacher how they have put this support to use for your children!

And last but not least, fun is had by all at the events hosted by the Social Activities Committee and many generous St. Victor School families:

• Hay Ride
• Sledding party
• Brunch with Santa
