St. Philip Catholic School Council is made up of a group of dedicated and interested parents who work to enhance the education of all of the children in our school community. Many committees of this council work on projects that assist in curriculum enhancement through assisting teachers with activities and fundraising for learning materials, spiritual growth across the school and connections to the community, playground and facilities development and enhancement and support of school initiatives.
