Parent Volunteer Association (PVA)

The Parent Volunteer Association (PVA) is an essential part of the Sacred Heart Grade School community. Through time, talent, and teamwork, our parent volunteers help bring to life the programs, events, and daily support that enrich our students’ educational experience.

Membership

All parents of children enrolled at Sacred Heart Grade School automatically become part of the PVA community.

Annual dues: $50.00 per family

Payment: Collected each fall at the same time as book fees

These contributions help support the many activities, programs, and volunteer efforts provided by the PVA throughout the school year.

Parent Packs

PVA parent packs are emailed to families each fall and include:

  • Information about PVA-sponsored activities
  • Volunteer sign-up sheets
  • Ways to get involved in school programs and special events
  • Parent packs are the first step toward becoming an active and engaged member of our school community.

Meetings

PVA meetings are held monthly, September through May. During these meetings, PVA officers and committee chairpersons collaborate to:

  • Organize volunteer support programs
  • Coordinate community-building socials
  • Plan student enrichment activities
  • All members are welcome and encouraged to attend.

Volunteer Opportunities

Parent volunteers provide invaluable service to Sacred Heart Grade School. Opportunities include:
