Parents are the primary educators of their children and contribute much to the school
community. All parents are required to donate 40 hours of service to the school on
an annual basis. (20 hours if single).
Parents serve on the School Board, Parent Club Board and Athletic Board.
Parents work in the classroom, library, front office, Reading Recovery Program, Art in Action
and serve as yard duty monitors. They also donate their time and talent to the parish.
Parents Club
All parents are members of our active parents club.
The parents club takes care of events such as Back to School Coffee, Back to School Picnic, Faculty
Appreciation Day, Principal Appreciation Day, and Grandparents' Day. They are in charge
of fundraisers including, Gift Wrap, Holiday Boutique and Fashion Show.
To find out how you can join in, contact Kari De Arantes Oliveira, President, or Shannon Melinauskas, Vice-president at parentclub@ihmschoolbelmont.com
Fashion Show
Each November IHM hosts a sold out fashion show, produced by a professional event team, to
create one of the peninsula's most exciting and fun annual events. Over the years we have
partnered with premium retailers such as Macy's, Selix Formalwear, and
The Limited Too,
as well as other select local retailers, to showcase the lastest fashions.
This fund raiser has become more profitable each year, and the funds raised directly benefit
IHM academic programs.
Event attendees include over 400 IHM families, parishioners, and community members who buy tickets
for the luncheon and fashion show.
