Message from 2008-2009 PTG Chairperson

Greetings Parents! It is with great pleasure that I will serve you and your children as the 2008-2009 PTG Chairperson. This is my 10th year as a parent of St. Mary's and find great joy in being involved with my children's education and extra-curricular activities. You ask why? I believe it benefits the children as well as supports the school. There is no better way to know what's happening at the school; to help share ideas, experiences and/or concerns with other parents and teachers; be part of a solution and making positive changes. This is just a few opportunities to be part of the school's community.

The PTG meetings are very informative. Some nights may be longer than expected but only if important things need to be addressed or planning an event such as the Fall Festival. Generally, the meetings end within an hour. Participating in the extra-curricular activities also gives our children a chance to talk and play with others outside of their classroom.

I can truly say that St. Mary's is a part of my family and will forever remain my family. The staff and teachers are amazing with the children and this is exactly what we want for our children.

Partnership with Parents

At St. Mary's Chinese Day School, parents play an important role in their children's academic, spiritual, emotional and athletic growth. Parents partner with the school and become involved to obtain the full spectrum of student life at St. Mary's Chinese Day School. The involvement should include but not limited to Parent-Teacher Group meeting, sports and other activities hosted by the school. We understand that parents are generally very tired after a full day of work but we encourage you to participate in as many meetings/activities as you can.

If you would like additional information on how you can help please contact anyone on the 2008-2009 PTG Advisory Board.
