Parent Fundraising Association
The Sturgeon Heights Recreational Facilities Association (the Rec Board) was formed in 1976. This society was renamed the Parent Fundraising Association in 2009 and continues to successfully operate as a result of the hard work of many parent volunteers. The PFA is a non-profit association that is responsible for much of the school’s fundraising, and its main objectives are:
- to work with School Council, Parents, Students, Sturgeon Heights School Staff, Community and School Division to raise funds to help supply and maintain educational and enrichment materials, as well as recreational equipment for the school and community.
- to organize and staff a hot lunch program and maintain a small store for Sturgeon Heights School.
The funds that enable the PFA to meet its objectives are received through various avenues such as:
- operating a small store which is open daily through the lunch eating period;
- providing regular hot lunches to students and staff, which include
lunches on Wednesdays, hot dogs on Fridays, and throughout the year
various other hot lunches from St. Albert restaurants:
- offering the Student Union Ticket Packs and / or Entertainment Books for sale;
- applying for government grants that may be available from time to time:
The success of any organization depends largely on its volunteer base and we encourage and welcome parents to attend our monthly meetings held on the same night of, and just prior to school council meetings - or you may wish to volunteer for helping in the snack shop or at one of our events throughout the year. The school office can direct you to the PFA’s Chairperson or Scheduling Person, to answer any questions you may have.
Our thanks goes out to all who so generously give of their time to help the PFA throughout each school year.
