St. Regis School Council

Mission Statement of the School Council

The 'School Council' supports the mission statement of St. Regis School toward building a strong Catholic community of the faculty, students, and parents of St. Regis. As a council, we reach consensus on issues of policy and broad planning and we identify issues, make recommendations and facilitate communication within the parish and parish community.

School Council

School Council members are parishioners selected from nominations tendered by the parish community to represent the wide diversity of the St. Regis School Community. The principal is also a member of this Council. Acceptance of this appointment signifies a commitment to the importance of the school and their role in the future of the school. The group was formed in the spring of 1987 and the members met in the summer of that year formulating their own mission statement and goals.

Goals of the School Council Members

	To operate in a positive Catholic atmosphere.
	To make a commitment to the 'School Council'.
	To identify important issues concerning the school
	To assure the continuation of St. Regis School.
	To achieve mutual support and trust between the School Council, the principal, and the pastor.
	To provide communication and cooperation with the other parish ministries.
	To be the Thinkers, Dreamers, and Planners for the school.

The School Council of St. Regis Parish, with support of the parents and teachers, strives to fulfill the goals and objectives of our school.
