Parent Teacher Fellowship

The Parent Teacher Fellowship (PTF) is an organization created to build and maintain communication between the parents and teachers. Each family enrolled at Providence is automatically a member of the PTF. We accomplish the task as partners in a covenant school by creating fellowship opportunities, sponsoring training for parents on relevant topics, and engaging parents as volunteers in the life of the school.

In addition to the volunteer committees, PTF has regular prayer groups open to all Providence parents. For more information please feel free to contact the PTF President or any of the PTF board members listed below.

MOM'S PRAYER meets every Tuesday from 8-9 a.m. in the High School Media Conference Room, which is the first door on left past Media Center. For more information contact or .

DADS’ PRAYER meets the on the first Tuesday of every month from 6:00-6:30 a.m. and on the third Tuesday of every month with two sessions at 6:45 a.m. and 7:45-8:15 a.m. Sessions are held in the High School Media Center. If you have any questions, please contact . We will be happy to send you a monthly e-mail reminder a few days prior to the gathering.
