Parent-Teacher Organization

The Parent-Teacher Organization is a consultative board made up of a parent from each grade whose role is to provide support for the Principal as the administrator of the school program, promote open communication among parents, teachers, and administration, and help to build and enhance the faith community of the Parish. At the core of their function is to also support the school's development and fundraising activities and be a positive voice for our school within our neighborhood and community as well as uniting all parents, parishioners, alumni and community entities to support the school with their time, talent and treasures.

A letter from out 2019 PTO:

Visitation Families -

As we wrap up the school year we'd like to take this opportunity to give you one last update from the PTO. We had a great year fundraising through our events, created a fantastic new event in the Visitation Science Fair and had productive meetings that assist in all areas of the Visitation community.  PTO sponsored fundraisers, including the classroom Project 300 events, brought in $150,000 for the Renew Visitation Campaign!! 

Many of you were kind enough to fill out our online survey. We have reviewed all of the results and will be making some changes to, hopefully, increase awareness and involvement as we start next year. 
  • Meeting agendas will be emailed out in advance of the meetings
  • Updates, post-meeting, will be emailed
  • We will have a new "project" submission form if you have ideas that you would like reviewed for implementation. 
We are also looking at other ways to make it easier for parents to get involved but we encourage you all to attend the meetings. They are on the school calendar and barring any big events, do not change. Meetings are a great way to get updates from Fr. Jim and Principal Watson. Most of our plans start their growth at our monthly meetings.  

Be on the lookout for information about the 4th of July Parade. Information on float building, shirts and participation will all be coming soon. The parade theme this year is "Cities Across America" and our city will be New Orleans! Hope you are ready to march with the jazz band because this one is going to be fun!

You may hear from the PTO again before the end of the year but this is the bulk of what we'd like to communicate to you. Have a great summer!!
