SCPA

The Saint Clement Parent Association is YOU. As the parent of a Saint Clement student, you are a member of the SCPA - Saint Clement Parent Association. The Saint Clement Parent Association utilizes the talent and skills that exist within our community. Whether you choose to get involved as a room parent, chair an event, or just support a school activity, we hope you find your experience deepens your relationship with the school.

Membership

All parents, by virtue of attending our school, become members of the Saint Clement Parent Association (SCPA). SCPA is also open to teachers and staff interested in the objectives of the Association. Our members are expected and encouraged to support our common goals and to contribute by way of time, talent and/or treasure to our fundraising efforts, classroom activities, and community-building events.

SCPA Meetings

All Saint Clement School parents are invited and encouraged to attend our monthly meetings. Check back soon for meeting dates.

If you wish to attend please reach out to SCPA president, Carolyn Newlin.

 

Mission

SCPA is a partnership.

Through the SCPA, parents and guardians work together with our faculty and staff to further enrich our children¹s educational experience. Together, and with our parish, we form a strong community and the SCPA becomes the primary vehicle for our interaction. The primary objectives of the SCPA are:

  • Generate and promote excellent communication among the parents, the school and the parish;

  • Provide an opportunity for social interaction between parents and faculty;

  • Provide ongoing informational programs for parents and teachers;

  • Provide volunteer service to the school;

  • Provide and support activities for the children outside the conventional classroom; and

  • Support the school board, the pastor and the faculty in fulfilling their objectives, within the scope of our own objectives.

 

Volunteer

Community involvement is a central focus of Saint Clement and is expected of all families accepted into the school. The SCPA has many ways to volunteer with time commitments ranging from very small to large. New volunteers are always welcomed and appreciated!
