PARENT INVOLVEMENT

Volunteers are a valuable asset of our school. Any adult wishing to volunteer time and talent should contact the school office. Volunteers are not limited to parents. Volunteers assist with recess supervision, library supervision, field trips, parties, photocopying papers, making phone calls, serving as teacher's aides, cafeteria supervision, Scrip Program, Grandparent program, guest speakers and many other activities.

Volunteers receive authority from the principal to discipline students if needed. Students must obey their directives and show respect to the volunteers. Christian service students from SFBRHS also serve as volunteers. Archdiocesan policy dictates that all volunteers must fill out a child abuse/neglect screening form that is sent to the state for a background check, attend a Protecting God's Children Workshop (Attendance is only required one time) and read and sign a Code of Ethical Conduct form.
