St. Mary Home
& School Association

The St. Mary Home & School Association (SMHSA) is designed to strengthen the relationship between home and school by providing St. Mary parents with a means to gather, share information & work together on school-related projects.

 

All parents/guardians of St. Mary School students are members of SMHSA & are invited to attend

our monthly meetings. We encourage you to sign up for one of our many volunteer opportunities

or head one of our committees.
