Purpose of the Parents Club
The Padua Franciscan Parents Club is intended to be an extension of the Padua-Parent Partnership at the high school. The organization seeks to share information for and about the school with all parents and guardians. Parents Club provides support, participation, and volunteers for a variety of school and extracurricular activities, provides opportunities for parents to learn and to be involved in the lives of their children, and provides support for the Padua Franciscan faculty and staff.
We consider all Padua parents to be members of the Padua Parents Club! The Padua Parents Club has NO DUES OR FEES.
