Volunteering
As you will find out as the year progresses there are many opportunities to help out in the classroom. We need
parent volunteers to help run our Art Docent, Math and Reading Groups and special events! If you are a new
parent or a returning one that has not yet been in the classroom you will need to complete our diocesan Safe
Environment for Children training. The online course can be found at virtus.org and the school will need a copy
of your completion certificate in order for you to help in the classroom. Additionally, you will need to be
fingerprinted by a Livescan provider (unfortunately, if you have previously been fingerprinted for your career,
certification etc. you will need to be re-fingerprinted for the Diocese). The office can provide you with the
necessary paperwork.
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions…
