The mission of the Council of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School, is to promote a Catholic School system with an excellent academic program founded on Christian virtues. The Council is an advisory board, made up of parents, that provides expertise in key areas, to the administration. 

Six to ten members selected through a discernment process comprise the voting members of the School Council (consensus is generally used). The Pastor, Principal, and the PTC liaison are ex-officio and non-voting members of the Council. The Council, whose authority is derived from the Pastor, is called into being by the Pastor and given its mission to advise the Principal and Pastor in areas of finances, school enhancement, policy, development, and strategic planning. The Council advises and acts in support of administrative decisions and actions that are taken by the Principal that implement previously established school policy. The Pastor retains the canonical responsibility of leadership in the Parish and School. 

The School Council generally meets on the third Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. in the school cafeteria. Meetings are not held in July. Parents are invited to observe regular Council meetings. Participation, however, is limited to the "Community Input" which is described in more detail below. 
 

All meetings of the Council, both regular and special are open to the public unless it is necessary to go into executive session for discussion, deliberation, or vote. If any person (directly associated with the school) other than a member of the Council wishes to bring a matter before the Council the person will register with Council Secretary prior to meeting. The individual will be limited to no more than 3 minutes--exceptions will be made at the discretion of the council. The remarks will be entertained during the community input section of the meeting. All remarks must be clear, concise and addressed to the Council as a body, and not to any individual member thereof. Any person making personal, impertinent or slanderous remarks while addressing the Council will be requested to leave the meeting.  The Council will act on matters relating to policy and does not act as a grievance committee. Any item brought forth before the council will be placed on the agenda for the next meeting along with a resolution/answer.
