The Parent Teacher Guild (PTG) is the organization designed to build support among parents who choose to send their children to Blessed Sacrament School. Following are the responsibilities of the Guild members:

Conduct Monthly Board Meetings.

PTG board meetings are held monthly. The board’s main purpose is to raise funds to support the school. The board is not involved in school administration, nor does it set school policy.
