Parent Association Overview
Visit Our Facebook PageBe a part of your child’s education and participate in some of the most memorable events of his/her life. Unlike grade school associations, our group does not require an enormous commitment. We are not a fund raising arm for the school. We focus on executing programs to help build a dynamic Central Catholic community.
We facilitate wonderful traditions such as the Faculty Appreciation Luncheon, Father-Daughter Dance, Mother-Son Brunch, Father-Son Event (P6), and Mother-Daughter Brunch and Crowning of Mary, as well Senior All-Night Party, and more through organized committees. We also offer grants to teachers and host the Parent Speaker Nights. We work with the Volunteer Coordinator to engage and connect parents. We also manage the weekly Eblast. The Parent Association is integral to the CCHS community.
Feel free to contact us, ask questions, get in touch with a grade level parent rep or event chair: parentassociation@centralcatholichigh.org.
