Parents' Guild
Mission Statement
The Parents' Guild of Seton Academy, a group of concerned and dedicated parents, assists the faculty and staff of Seton Academy in fostering spiritual growth, academic excellence and strong Catholic values through extracurricular activities. It is our goal to provide the students of Seton Academy with opportunities for social interaction that support spiritual and social growth, as well as academic assemblies that support curriculum instruction within the school and community settings.
Fundraising
Fundraising is done solely to support activities provided by the Parents' Guild. All monies collected through fundraising go back directly to the school community in the form of academic awards, social activities and to offset the cost of academic programs.
To find out about opportunities to help our children watch this page or send an email to parentsguild@setonacademypa.org.Adult volunteers at Seton Academy must complete the Protecting God's Children program. Information regarding the calender of available classes and forms are available at the Allentown Diocese Youth Protection website.

The Parents Guild has had a busy and successful fall season. The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia did a wonderful assembly for the school and was featured in the AD Times School News section.
Along with CYO, we entered the Bethlehem Halloween Parade for the first time and were rewarded for our efforts with the Mayor’s Trophy. Tremendous thanks go out to all the parents, students and teachers who marched in the parade.
These are only the beginnings of what is turning out to be our busiest and most successful year supporting the staff and students at Seton. We would certainly appreciate whatever time and talents you have to share. No amount of time is too small, so don’t hesitate to contact us with a note to the Parents Guild in care of Mr. Brunell. We look forward to sharing the fun with you at these great events!
Here are a few highlights of our upcoming schedule. Look for details both on the website [www.setonacademypa.org] and in the family folder on Thursdays.
