How does the school benefit from PTG?
Every year, our PTG raises funds to support school initiatives through charity events and activities. While raising is criticsl to our efforts, we are more than just a fundraising organization. Our success depends on the dedication of parent and teacher volunteers who generously donate their time and talents. This allows us to:
Enhance Community Engagement - We provide a positive community and social support network amongst parents, fostering connections and collaboration that benefit all of us.
Facilitate Communication and Collaboration - We offer a forum for parents to have a say in school matters, ensuring their voices are heard and contributing to a more cohesive and responsive educational experience.
Support Educational Programs and Initiatives - We create numerous opportunities for parents and families to support their child’s learning, from volunteering in the classroom, participating in memorable events, to organizing extracurricular activities to enrich the overall school experience.

Be promoted to the next grade, pass their classes, and earn credits
Attend school regularly
Have better social skills, show improved behavior, and adapt weel to school
Graduate and go on to postsecondary education
How can I get more involved?

Can't make it to a meeting? All event and meeting information will be updated on our website for visibility.
Any time or talent you can volunteer is appreciated! You don't need to have a lot of extra time to volunteer - tell us how much you have, where your interests lie and we'll find something that fits. You can always fill out our interest form for us to get back to you on where/how you can help.
Where can I purchase Spirit Wear for Holy Rosary?

I missed a PTG meeting, what can I do to catch up?
We completely understand if you can't make it to every meeting. That's why we plan to track and update our minutes/notes from each PTG meeting right here throughout the year for visibility to all of our parents/guardians.
If you ever have any questions, you can always email our PTG team directly.
How do I sign up for PTG newsletters and updates?
