Home & School Association

Join a Committee

The Home and School Association will strive to increase the active involvement of parents in the life of the parish school community, while supporting the long term viability and growth of the parish school by helping to retain current families and attract prospective families.

All current parish school parents/guardians make up the general membership of HSA and are encouraged to participate. HSA will consist of four elected officers (Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson/Treasurer, Recording Secretary and Communications Secretary) as well as Committees (Hospitality, Social Events, Staff Appreciation, Homeroom Parents, and Alumni).

Introducing our Home & School Association Officers
2023-2025

stacy graiko
Chairperson

 

Stacy converted from National Catholicism to Roman Catholicism with the guidance of Father Mullin in 2023.  She has experience as a previous member of the HSA and Cochair of the hospitality committee and has twins (St. Elizabeth, Class of 2029) who have attended Saint Elizabeth since first grade. Stacy highly values the educational experience as well as the community of Saint Elizabeth Parish. Between her volunteer roles within the Parish and School, and a lifetime of brand strategy experience, Stacy is enthusiastic about the opportunities Chairperson brings. She looks forward to continuing to strengthen the collaboration between the HSA, Board of Limited Jurisdiction, Father Donia, Mrs. Fitzpatrick, parents and teachers. Stacy is committed to ensuring a robust Saint Elizabeth Parish school community for our students, faculty, staff, and families for years to come in her role as Chairperson of the HSA.

Jaime Sciabacucchi
Vice Chairperson / Treasurer

 

Catholic education is very near and dear to Jaime’s heart. As the daughter of two Catholic elementary school teachers, she attended Catholic school from kindergarten through college where she earned her accounting degree. Her and her husband have been parishioners at St. Elizabeth Parish since moving to Chester Springs in 2007. When the time came to choose an elementary school for their twins (St. Elizabeth, Class of 2027), there was no doubt they would attend St. Elizabeth Parish School. Jaime is grateful for the education and school experience and can testify to the impact of the Home and School Association in strengthening community at St. Elizabeth. She is eager to continue the great work of the HSA as the Vice Chairperson/Treasurer and hopes to continue to increase the involvement of current families while attracting prospective families.  

Maria Dell
Recording Secretary

 

A former elementary teacher, with non-profit experience and mom of three (St. Elizabeth, Class of 2032, 2035, and future Spartan), Maria values Catholic education and the thriving parish community at St. Elizabeth which enables her children to have spiritual guidance all around them. Maria grew up attending and volunteering at her own Parish events and envisions the same nurturing community for her children. Maria brings prior involvement in a PTA, with event and fundraising experience, along with her active involvement as a parent volunteer within St. Elizabeth. She looks forward to bringing creative ideas to help grow our parish school community and to providing unique opportunities for our students and families. As Recording Secretary, Maria brings dedication, reliability, fairness, honesty, attention to detail, and a passion for making St Elizabeth the best place for the students and families it serves.

Lindsey Sofia
Communications Secretary

 

Lindsey brings a strong spirit of collaboration, creativity, and a deep commitment to faith-based education. A product of Catholic Education herself, Lindsey is actively engaged in the St. Elizabeth Community, consistently eager to support and strengthen the connection between St. E families and our school, whether as a parent volunteer, or substitute teacher. She is the mother to two children who have attended St. Elizabeth (Class of 2029 & 2031) since Kindergarten and Pre-K, respectively. With years of professional communication experience, organizational skills, and heart for the St. Elizabeth community and its success, Lindsey is excited to serve as the Communications Secretary, bringing creative ideas, and hands-on help to St. Elizabeth events, fundraising efforts, and parent involvement initiatives.
