What does the Home School Association (HSA) do at SME?

 

School Spirit Family Social Events

HSA hosts special events for the entire family during the school year. One of last year's events was a family Trunk or Treat night, filled with fall favorites of pumpkin painting, pizza and fall baked goods, and of course lots of candy!

                                

St. Nicholas Day

Our HSA Team provides evry student in the school with a special treat to celebrate St. Nicholas Day. 

 

Merry Moose Shop

Each Christmas season students are given the opportunity to shop on their own for small gifts to surprise special people on Christmas Day. This year's Shop is open on December 5 and 6.

 

Catholic Schools Week

Mark your calendar for the most exciting week of the school year! Activities may range from an ice cream social, open house, movie day, and fun themed dress down days.  We also honor a distinguished graduate of SME at a special mass.  This year's Catholic Schools Week begins on January 26 and concludes on January 31.

 

Teacher & Staff Appreciation

As a token of our continued appreciation and support, HSA recognizes our dedicated teachers and staff throughout the year. We show our gratitude in many ways throughout the school year by purchasing classroom supplies and special events just for teachers. 
 

Penny Fair

One of the longest running SME traditions, the Penny Fair transforms the gymnasium into a mini-carnival with games of chance and skill. Children can win toys, candy and cakes. Recently, we have added a special Pre-K Penny Fair, an event that is open for only our PK students. 

 

School Picnic

Our final celebration of the year is filled with games and activities for the children. Parents are welcome to volunteer or simply come enjoy the fun and festivities. Our school picnic is on June 13.  

 

Fundraisers

Fall & Spring Book Fair

Scholastic Books offers a wide variety of books to our students. Parents are invited to join their children during designated times during the school day or in the evening to choose their favorite books.  Purchases made at the book fair also benefit our school library as we accrued credit.

 

Easter Candy Sale

Don't let the Easter Bunny miss your house! We offer a spring candy sale through Fowlers Chocolates which offers a wide selection of delicious chocolate and spring holiday items.
