Welcome to the Parent Ambassador program at Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools!
At Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools, we believe in the power of our already thriving community. Our Parent Ambassador program is designed to harness the passion and dedication of our parents to represent our school and serve as invaluable touch points for inquiring and incoming families.
Our Mission:

Some of the areas you could be apart of include, but aren't limited too:
- Training session/brainstorming workshop with admissions department
- Phoning incoming families
- Attending open houses
- Host "Mass Mingles" after all school masses
- Tabling after parish masses
Why It Matters
Parent Ambassadors are not just volunteers; they are agents of change within our community. Here’s why their role matters:
- Recruitment and Retention: Parent Ambassadors are instrumental in attracting new families to our schools and ensuring the continued enrollment of current students. By sharing their positive experiences and insights, they help prospective families envision themselves as part of our vibrant community.
- Breaking Down Barriers: We believe in inclusivity and accessibility for all families. Parent Ambassadors help break down the barriers by offering a warm welcome and providing genuine insights into our schools' culture.
- Empowerment and Leadership: The program isn't just about representation; it’s about empowerment. By giving parents the tools and support to share their stories and advocate for our schools, we nurture leadership skills and foster a sense of ownership within our community. Parent Ambassadors become leaders not only within our school walls but also in their broader spheres of influence.
