    Bake Sales are held each school year during all 3 lunch periods. Volunteers are needed to bake items and setup and sell at the table during lunch periods. Please drop the baked goods off in the main office the morning of the bake sale.

  • Birthday Locker Signs

    Each student on their birthday or half birthday has a Happy Birthday sign hung on their locker. A volunteer (or small group of volunteers) is needed to add the student’s name and birthdate to pre-printed birthday signs, and drop them off at school each month. If this sounds like an activity you’d be interested in helping with, please contact Antonella Iacobone at iacobone@desales.co.

  • Used Uniform Sale (7/12/25)

    Mothers Club collects gently used uniforms, spirit wear, hats, backpacks, ties, etc. throughout the school year. These are laundered, repaired and stored. Each summer, we hold a Gently Used Uniform Sale. If you have something to donate, please drop off or send to the school office. During the year, if you need something email mothersclub@desales.co

Mothers Club Proceeds and Impact

In addition to funding the events and activities listed above, each year the Mothers Club purchases a gift for the school from our proceeds. We have purchased a kiln for the ceramics class, lab tables for a science room, teacher workroom supplies, repairs to air conditioners in the Chapel and trainer’s room, as well as provided several scholarships. We work closely with the school administration to identify and fulfill higher priority academic and supportive facility needs.
