Please Join our HSA!
Home And School Mission
The Home and School Association, or HSA, was formed as a communication vehicle between the school and home to organize service activities, volunteers and fundraisers. Over the years, efforts of Immaculate Conception’s HSA have fulfilled the needs of the school in many ways.
The HSA exists to...
...Promote school and parish spirit through its sponsored activities.
...Support the school staff and students through fund raising and commitment hours.
...Maintain good communications between home and school.
...Provide a vehicle through which parents can serve the school.
...All parents of Immaculate Conception's children are members of the HSA by virtue of their children’s enrollment.
General business meetings are held at least three times per year, various social activities bring families together at other times, and an elected board coordinates all events and activities. Please plan to attend the General Meetings as that is our best way of informing you of what is going on at the school.

Letter from the President
Dear ICS Families:
We have a wonderful sense of community at our school. There are many opportunities to further enrich this relationship through participation and outreach. As always, the HSA has several upcoming events that we have traditionally aided with to make a success every year, such as “Catholic Schools Week”, Family Socials, and “Teacher Appreciation Week”. As President, I have 4 points that I hope to emphasize:
Number 1- Encouraging involvement through volunteering;
Number 2- Faith Outreach through opportunities to connect families with fellowship and spiritual growth;
Number 3-Strengthening Fundraising through several opportunities that are already in place and to build more incentive with those;
Number 4- Outreach to our Main Church through more recognition and presence.
Please prayerfully consider where your time and talents will best be utilized and let me or a board member know how we can best serve you and
the school.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Cole, President of ICS Home and School Association
