Home & School Association

The St. Robert Home & School Association is an organization of parents of the students of St. Robert School. Together we can create a strong and supportive school community that allows our children to flourish academically and spiritually. Through our collective efforts, we are accomplishing great things.

We, the volunteers of the St. Robert Home and School Association, seek to enhance the education of our children by:

Coordinating communication between St. Robert families and the School
Raising funds to benefit the School directly
Fostering a feeling of community within the St. Robert Parish and School
