St. Andrews is fortunate to have a fabulous group of teachers and staff that are so dedicated to guiding our children through their primary school experience.

It is the collective strength of parents and staff that share concerns and seek solutions that makes St. Andrew’s School the truly special place it is today. Below is an outline of what our PTA is all about.

General Information 

​Class Representatives
At the beginning of every school year, two parents from each class are asked to volunteer to be a Class Representative. These parents act as liaison between teachers and parents. They work alongside your child’s teachers to help plan activities and events that occur throughout the year. This is a great opportunity for parents to get involved.

Dollar Day
Children really look forward to this event. This is a great opportunity to meet other moms and dads of St. Andrew's, not to mention your child’s excitement in seeing you on that day.

Fund Raisers
The PTA holds fundraisers yearly to help raise money for projects in the school that need attention. Our fundraising efforts also allow for much-needed renovations to our school. There are so many ways that parents can contribute and we encourage and invite you to join in our efforts to advocate for our children.
