Service Opportunities

In addition to financial support of the school, each PreK through 8th Grade* family is required to give a minimum of 25 hours of service per year.

10 of these hours must be contact hours, defined as time engaging with the school community. This commitment is made by contract during registration.

Families may also contribute $15 per hour in lieu of service, for a total of $375.
However, service hours are preferred over monetary contributions.

Deadline: Hours must be completed by March 1st of each school year. Families who have not met the requirement will be billed through FACTS.

Any hours completed after March 1st can be applied to the next school year.

Examples of contact hours include:

• Attending Home and School meetings (2 hours per meeting)
• Volunteering on Home and School committees
• Lunch parent
• Field trip chaperone
• Volunteering at Fall Festival
• Helping with Orientation Day, Grandparents Day, Open House
• Speaking at Masses
• Parent Ambassadors contacting/meeting new families

Note: Attendance at athletic events or social functions does not qualify unless you’re part of the organizing committee or helping staff.
