Parent School Organization (PSO)
The Parent School Organization (PSO) is comprised of all parents/guardians of St. Mary Magdalene Catholic School students.
The PSO's main goal is to build community within the school by sponsoring fun family activities, offering volunteer programs that enhance our Catholic faith, and coordinating fundraising efforts to benefit the school, students, and teachers. We are grateful for the support and participation of all parents, students, teachers and staff who make our school a special place to pray, learn, and care.
Parent involvement is a great asset to the StMM dynamic. The PSO invites you to volunteer your time and talents throughout the year.

FALL/WINTER VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT
PSO would like to highlight some of the people whose hard work contribute to the success of our PSO initiatives!
Monarch Mondays - Check out two of the PSO's shining stars! Meet Erin Bonasso and Christie Mandia - co chairs of Monarch Monday - a significant fundraiser for the PSO.
Planning and executing this major fundraiser is a monumental undertaking, and the PSO is fortunate to have two stellar volunteers in charge. They even threw in an exciting twist this year to keep MM fresh - the addition of shorts and skorts!
We greatly appreciate the dedication, time, and energy these ladies invested to make this another successful year of Monarch Mondays.
Fall Soup and Salad Luncheon - A heartfelt thank you to Kim Limoli for leading our Fall Soup & Salad Luncheon, a long-standing staff favorite. Kim handled every detail with such ease and thoughtfulness, creating a warm and welcoming experience for our faculty and staff. Taking this on while also running the Book Fair — all within the same busy timeframe — is no small feat, and we are incredibly grateful for her generosity, time, and care in making both events such a success.
Treasurer/Room Parent Coordinator - Moving on to the dynamic duo of Andy and Cindy Benoit- together they form a true cornerstone of our PSO! Andy serves as our Treasurer, and his attention to detail, reliability, and steady guidance help ensure the PSO operates with confidence and clarity throughout the year.
Cindy serves as our Pre-K through 4th Grade Room Parent Coordinator, where she plays a vital role in supporting teachers and their room parents. Together, Andy and Cindy were instrumental in organizing and collecting contributions for this year’s teacher cash gift fund, helping us show meaningful appreciation for our faculty. We are deeply grateful for their dedication and the positive impact they make on St. Mary Magdalene.
Santa's Secret Workshop - Lauren Stella and Kerri Bartoszek are the driving force behind one of our most beloved traditions—Secret Santa’s Workshop. While the event itself takes place over just two weeks, the planning and preparation truly span the entire year. From purchasing and organizing inventory to coordinating volunteers and schedules, and of course transforming our activities building into a true Christmas dreamland, Lauren and Kerri’s dedication ensures that this special experience runs seamlessly for our teachers and students.
During the two weeks of the workshop, Lauren and Kerri are at school nearly all day, every day, ensuring that every child has a joyful, meaningful opportunity to participate. Their time, energy, and commitment create lasting memories for our students and families, and we are incredibly grateful for the countless hours they devote to making Secret Santa’s Workshop such a success.
Faculty & Staff Cookie Exchange - Ashley Buechner brought warmth, creativity, and thoughtful organization to this year’s Faculty and Staff Cookie Exchange—one of our teachers’ favorite December traditions. Thanks to her planning and attention to detail, the event was beautifully coordinated and a joyful highlight during a busy season.
The feedback from our faculty said it all, with many sharing that this year’s exchange was the best one yet! Ashley’s time and care helped create a moment of connection and appreciation for our teachers and staff, and we are truly grateful for the positive impact she made on our school community.
The PSO is grateful for the many parents/guardians and staff members who step up each year. Want to see your face smiling back at you from this page? We have many opportunities to get involved! Email PSO@stmm.net for info!
