At St. Mary’s, parents are an essential part of our school family — and our Parent Organization (PO) is where that spirit truly shines. We are incredibly fortunate to have an active, caring, and energetic group of parents who bring joy, creativity, and connection to campus life all year long.
Every parent at SMES is automatically a member of the Parent Organization, and all are warmly invited to attend monthly meetings, volunteer, and take part in the fun. There are so many ways to get involved, whether you can give an hour or a whole season — your presence makes our community stronger
