Parents’ Council
strengthening our school community
The Parents' Council supports Providence by promoting the mission and philosophy of the school, by promoting community between the parents and faculty in order that Providence may be an extension of the family, and by raising funds for the needs of the school. The 2008-2009 Parents’ Council is chaired by Kyle and Susan Raybourn. Serving alongside the Raybourns are more than sixty committee chairmen.
