Parents' Association
The Parents Association of St. Raymond is a dedicated group of working parents. This vital component to St. Raymond is a diverse and talented group of parents who meet monthly to discuss ways to best support the school, their sons, and each other. Originally in the 1960s there was a Parent Organization founded by mothers who were very active in the school and in the community. Their main objective was to help their sons and the school community by working together to establish a strong foundation upon which their sons would grow and mature.
During the 2006-07 school year, the Parents Association ran concession sales during all St. Raymond basketball games. They also organized, for the first time, a highly successful Casino Night, at which close to 100 people enjoyed games, food and entertainment.
There is also an important academic component to the P.A. No matter what age your son is, every parent can benefit from sharing best practices for study habits, college preparation, and social/athletic opportunities. During the first meeting of the 2007-08 year, the Princeton Review gave a college preparation presentation to more than 40 parents. It was a valuable night for all. Meeting notes are posted on the Parents Page on the school website. The schedule for P.A. meetings for the '09-'10 school year will appear on the website.
