Parents for Others (PFO) was started as a way for parents whose boys have graduated from St. Paul's High School to stay connected to the school after graduation. The time spent at St. Paul's is memorable not only for the boys, but also for the parents. Many friendships were developed at various school events and through volunteering. It is these friendships and the community that St. Paul's creates that PFO wishes to maintain and foster.
The PFO Mission is to build community by offering opportunities for SPHS alumni parents to stay connected with the school and each other.
The PFO Motto is Maintaining Community through Memories.
