Parent Service Organization (PSO)

Mission

The mission of the Parent Service Organization (PSO) is to enhance and support the educational environment of St. Catherine’s Montessori by building community through family involvement and service.

We strive to build a school where we know we will be welcomed, and our families are all known by name. Parental service reinforces the strong foundation of education, spirituality, and social and emotional development laid down by the school foundresses nearly 60 years ago.

Volunteer Opportunities

Parents, guardians, and grandparents can volunteer for a variety of PSO activities and events during the school year, including: 

• Assist our naturalist in keeping campus grounds beautiful
• Host a Sociable, parent-sponsored parties and activities that build community
• Help neighbors in need by performing works of mercy
• Run concessions, drive the team buses, or keep score at games
• Help cover and reshelve library books or work at the annual book fair
• Assist our music guide with student performances
• Host your classroom's parent potluck at the beginning of the school year
• Assist our catechist with preparations for monthly Mass and creating Atrium materials
• Lend a hand at our annual community potluck picnics, Fall Fest and Spring Fling

These are just a few ways to become involved in the life of our community. Every PSO activity is not only an opportunity to assist the school, but also a chance to connect with other St. Catherine's parents. Lifelong friendships have begun while unpacking library bags together! 

You are welcome as a member of the PSO as soon as your child is enrolled at St. Catherine's. Please volunteer with us however and whenever you can. To sign up, use the volunteer form on the parent portal, or contact us at pso@stcathmont.org.
