The Parent Action Association (PAA) is an active group of parents who support St. Odilia School. The PAA has three main goals:

• Keep tuition reasonable through fundraising (mainly through the Marathon for Non-Public Education)
• Provide volunteer support for school programs
• Build community by supporting teachers, providing hospitality, and responding to parent needs

All parents of St. Odilia students are members of this association, have an equal voice in PAA business, and are invited to attend monthly PAA meetings.

The PAA is explained more thoroughly in our school handbook.

PAA Meetings

The PAA holds monthly meetings the second Tuesday of every month during the school year excluding the month of December.  All meetings are at 7pm and are held in room 2308.  Meetings generally last one hour.  All parents are encouraged and invited to attend.

Fundraising Programs

Thank you to all parents and St. Odilia supporters that support St. Odilia school through the Target Take Charge of Education Program. St. Odilia has been recognized by Target as one of the top schools in Minnesota for receiving dollars from the program. When a Target-Visa account holder designates St. Odilia as their school of choice, we receive one percent of every dollar that is charged at Target.  Please help us make the most of this program.  For further information go to www.target.com/tcoe.
