The St. Cyril of Alexandria Advisory School Board is a caring community of members who believe they are to integrate “faith into life and life into faith” for our children, families and the greater St. Cyril community.

Parents and friends commit their time and talents to the learning environment in a variety of programs including assistance in the classroom or participation in the evening or weekends with fundraising, hospitality or maintenance. In lieu of a PALing commitment, a $550 service substitution fee is charged. PALS host events which encourage communication between the school and family. Parents are requested to attend department orientations, open houses, school community functions, scheduled conferences and enrichment workshops for parents as members of the Cougar Caring Community.
