The School Advisory Council (SAC) is a ten-member council consisting of the Pastor, the Principal, and ten+ voting parishioners. It is an advisory group whose responsibility is to recommend or advise on policy pertinent to school management, finances, and operation of the school. The Council is dedicated to promoting educational excellence.
