Mothers Club Update – March 2026
March is here — full of spring breaks, travel, and warmer days ahead. As we turn the page on the calendar, I hope your Lenten season is going well and that you are using this time for meaningful reflection. Spring sports are now in full swing, bringing new energy and excitement to campus.

A huge thank you to Amy Stiteler and Sandhya Vollala for co-chairing the 16th annual Mother Son Trivia Night! A special shout out goes to the Senior Class of 2026 for voting on this year’s theme - College. With over 600 participants, it was an unforgettable evening filled with energy, laughter, and school spirit!

Senior moms have officially kicked off this special season of celebrations with their sons! A heartfelt thank you to Lisa Casciola for organizing the Mother Son Dance Lessons. It was such a fun evening filled with laughter and I’m proud to say I even mastered the box step!

Senior Mom Prom is right around the corner on April 19, 2026 in the Si Commons! This is a night you won’t want to miss complete with dinner, dancing, and donuts! Click HERE to register. Senior parents please be sure to check the Senior webpage regularly for important details related to senior-year events.

March also brings us into full preparation mode for the 2026 CASHBAH Dinner Auction. It truly takes an army of volunteers to make this event successful. If you haven’t volunteered or donated yet, there is still time. You can find more information HERE.

There is so much to look forward to in these final three months of the school year, and I hope you’ll join us as we continue to build connection and community together. For the most up-to-date information on all 2026 events, please visit the Events & Volunteer Opportunities on the Mothers Club website.

If you have any questions or would like to volunteer, please contact me at moms@sluh.org. We look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event and continuing to build our SLUH community together.

Warmly,
Natalie Cox
President, SLUH Mothers Club

Mothers Club History

In December of 1927, Fr. William F. Parry, SJ, then Principal of SLUH, called a meeting of the mothers of SLUH students. He wanted to express his gratitude for the successful card party organized to help defray the cost of repairing extensive damage done to the school and chapel due to a tornado. At this thank you meeting, one of the women suggested the formation of a Mothers Club. This was met with the overwhelming approval, and Mrs. Victoria Cervantes was unanimously elected the Club’s first President.

Since that time almost 100 SLUH Moms have served as President of the Mothers Club and countless more have volunteered their time, energy, and dedication by answering, “Yes”, when called to serve.

Today, the Mothers Club continues to support St. Louis University High, create a community for all Moms, and our fundraising supports meaningful traditions, celebrations, and initiatives throughout the year—including Staff and Faculty Appreciation, Parent Events, Student Activities, and more.
