Parents' Association

The St. Francis Xavier Parents' Association (PA) Board is an active team of dedicated parents who impact the school and students in big and small ways. Our mission is to promote Families for Others throughout the SFX community. The activities organized by the Parent Association are designed to build community spirit and advance the mission of our school. There are many ways to get involved and volunteer.
