The purpose of the SFX Parent Teacher Organization is to promote, support and provide for the welfare of its children in school, church and community; to help insure that the educational, spiritual and physical environment and resources for students and teachers are of the highest quality; to enhance the relations between home, school, parents and teachers in order to best achieve mutual agreement and cooperation in the education and well-being of each student.
Family and community involvement are instrumental in providing assistance to the quality educational programs at St. Francis Xavier School. A strong emphasis is placed on parents, (the child's first and most important teacher), as partners and supporters in the education process, the PTO has a commitment to promote and to provide support in the areas of educational support, fund-raising, social events, and encouraging parent involvement in the school.The purpose of parent involvement in PTO is to help children do better in school. According to PTO Today, when parents are involved in a child's education, both at home and at school, children do better academically. This includes higher grades and test scores, better attendance, better social skills, fewer behavior problems, and a tendency to graduate and continue their education
