The East Catholic Parents Association (PA) supports the students, faculty, and staff of East Catholic High School (ECHS). The involvement of parents and families helps foster a spirit of Christian community and sharing through service and commitment. PA volunteers participate in a variety of educational, social, and fundraising activities.

The PA becomes successful through the active participation of East Catholic parents and families. You can help and join in the fun! Please use our Parents Association Inquiry form to volunteer for a committee or event.

Connecticut Federation of Catholic School Parents

The Archbishop of Hartford and the Bishops of Bridgeport and Norwich established the Connecticut Federation of Catholic School Parents. Its purpose is to represent Catholic schools in Connecticut at all levels of government. The federation is committed to educating Catholic school parents and the Catholic school community regarding the rights and issues concerning the education of children attending Catholic schools.

The federation will work to protect, preserve, and expand rights and guarantee that children in Catholic schools receive the public services to which they are entitled to the fullest extent of current law. It will also work to expand those rights so that more children have the opportunity to attend Catholic schools.

The federation has established the Grassroots Advocacy Network, designed to organize Catholic school parents, alumni, and those committed to Catholic education and make them aware of the issues confronting Catholic schools.
