Advisory Council

The St. Rita Advisory Council serves to assist the President and Pastor in carrying out the mission and strategic plan of St. Rita Catholic School. Members serve a three-year term.  The Advisory Council typically meets in Building 1, Board Room D-249 on the 3rd Wednesday of each month during the school year beginning at 6:30 p.m.  The meetings are open to all parish and school families, and the Council will reserve time for questions from guests. If you wish to address the Council as part of the regular agenda, please see the procedures outlined in the School Handbook for Students and Parents.
 

The role of the Advisory Council is to represent the parents of our students by recommending strategies, policies, and budgetary resources to the pastor, to advise and support the president/school in executing the policies and strategies, and to communicate with our school community in a way that is inspiring and encouraging.

 

The Advisory Council exists to ensure that our school has the resources and direction to equip our students to excel academically, socially, spiritually, and intellectually in today’s world.
