SAC Application

St. Paul elects a School Advisory Committee (SAC) to advise the pastor and principal on policies and long term planning. The SAC is a group of current parishioners and parents with our pastor, parish staff, school administration, and a teacher representative. The SAC collaborates throughout the year and meets monthly to develop and implement goals for the school. The goals are often financial or curricular in nature, and the committee supports the school and parish in bringing the goals to fruition. It is worth noting that the school committee is set up to advise but the principal and pastor have the final decision-making authority.

The mission of the St. Paul School Advisory Committee (SAC) is to promote and support a faith-based Catholic school environment that celebrates each child’s personal, spiritual, academic, and social development.
