Every parent and guardian is a member of the St. Albert the Great Parents' Association! Our mission is to develop and sustain activities that foster fun, friendship, and faith for the children in our school and parish communities. We work to promote closer connections between school and home by encouraging parent involvement, and we strive to enhance the educational experiences of our children by supporting academic and enrichment activities in and out of the classroom. Our purpose includes working to build a strong school community by providing support and resources for the teachers, staff, and Administration of St. Albert the Great school as they help our children grow educationally, socially, and spiritually.

Parents' Association Assembly
Last year’s Parents’ survey showed that you would like to hear more dynamic speakers talking about relevant parenting topics of the day. In response, the Parents’ Association is pleased to host Tom Kersting on MONDAY NOVEMBER 18th at 7:00 pm in the Dining Hall! Mr. Kersting is a licensed therapist & family counselor, and he is the author of the best-selling book Disconnected: How to Reconnect our Digitally Distracted Kids. If you are concerned that your child is spending too much time on his or her phone, iPad, or the new Fortnite season, then this presentation is for you! You will leave feeling empowered and armed with solutions to help your child reconnect and succeed, and help you cope with parenting in our digital age. This event is FREE (thanks to your support of PA fundraisers!) and we encourage you to tell your family and friends about it, too! For more information about Mr. Kersting, visit his website: www.tomkersting.com We look forward to seeing you there! **Special Note: This is a Homework Free Night for SATG students!!**
