MISSION

Every St. Simon parent and staff member is a part of PFO. We help to foster a sense of community amongst parents and staff by facilitating committees and organizing volunteers. Our mission is to further enhance and enrich our children’s education at St. Simon while teaching our children the importance of giving back to our community through ministry type contributions. The money raised through fund-raising efforts is used to purchase items that are needed to round out the superior curriculum already offered at St. Simon School.

FUNDRAISING

The PFO raises money through family donations, Royal Fun Run (PFO's largest event), Effortless Fundraising, and other PFO sponsored events throughout the year.

SUPPORTED BY THE PFO

What does the PFO do with its money? The PFO works from an annual budget in which funds raised are allocated between school improvements, curriculum enhancements, faculty grants, the Royal Rally, teacher luncheons, Teacher Appreciation Week, scholarships, new student t-shirts and more. The PFO hopes to raise approximately $85,000 during the 2022-2023 school year.

GET INVOLVED!

The PFO is ALWAYS looking for parents to volunteer for event committees or to assist or join the PFO Board. Email the PFO at P FO@SAINTSIMON.ORG, sign up through the Volunteer Page or Contact Us Here.
