Parent Participation Requirements

Note:  If you receive Tuition Assistance, you are required to contribute 10 additional General Parent Volunteer Hours (PVH). If this obligation is not fulfilled, future subsidies may not be granted.

Our Parent Teacher Group (PTG) and VOLUNTEERING 

St. Joseph School requires that parents contribute 35 hours in a variety of ways that help eliminate costs so that we can purchase capital improvements, add to our technology base and provide teachers in order to educate the “Whole Child”. We value each hour contributed of time, talent, and treasure.

Volunteering includes a donation of food, treats, or drinks for any event or function, pre-approved by the event chair and principal. Specifics of the donations required for the event will be outlined as to what is equivalent to one PPH or worth $25.

Work is done at the committee level where ideas are presented and the creative juices flow. The committee chair/co-chair set the dates and times for their meetings and will send a representative to the PTG and/or Board meeting for reporting.

Attending a PTG, Board, committee, CYO Sports and/or Town Hall meeting and/or Parent Education event will go toward fulfilling your PPH meeting obligation.
We feel it is important that parents are encouraged to contribute to the community and know what is going on so they can provide feedback and new ideas. We encourage you to attend both the PTG and Board meetings where reports are heard, and decisions are made. The PTG meet the 1st Tuesday at 6:30pm and the School Board the 1st Monday of each month at 6:00 pm.
All are invited.

See more details in the Parent/Student handbook.
