Volunteer Information

PARENT VOLUNTEER HOURS

Volunteers play a vital role in the continued success of our school and parish. Each family is responsible for finding, recording, and tracking their volunteer hours throughout the school year. Each family is required to complete 30 volunteer hours. A maximum of 10 hours may be earned through goods or material donations, such as classroom treats or Autumn Fest candy.

All volunteer hours must be completed between June 1, 2026, and May 31, 2027. Any hours not fulfilled by May 31, 2027, will be assessed as a fee of $30.00 per hour, with payment due by the last day of June.

Families are required to document their hours at https://docs.google.com/a/stphil.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfG7syuH75d5g30HZCYJQU5IO4YymUhiSKi5MKlYpwp8ULizA/formResponse

How can I fulfill my service hour commitment? Get involved at the school and parish level. Any service supporting the good works of the school and parish are counted as volunteer hours. Ideas include but are not limited to: room parents, working in the classroom, take home projects, SPLASH auction, Scrip program, gardening around the grounds, ministers for the masses, serving on a commission, chaperoning on field trips, attending the monthly PEP Club meetings and MORE!
