Who Are We?
The Gaels Parents’ Association exists as a fundraising and fun
raising organization in support of the administration, faculty,
staff and most importantly, our children, the students of St. Mary’s
High School. At a time when our children are attempting to make
greater strides toward their independence from us, we are a vehicle
through which we can maintain involvement in their lives.
Although life is busy, we hope you will make time to come to a
meeting or volunteer to help at an event, or from your home. If you
know that you have access to goods or services, or connections with
anyone or anything that might help the school, please let us know.
Gaels meetings are listed in the calendar at
www.stmary.ws/highschool or the school handbook. Please
send any questions or suggestions to
GaelsParents@aol.com.
