WHO
All families, preschool through 4th grade, are asked to volunteer. We require a minimum of 20 hours of volunteer hours throughout the school year.
HOW
The best way to get involved is through our Home and School Association (HSA). The HSA meets four times throughout the year – in September, November, January, and March. Together, we have fun working on fundraising events and other volunteer-led activities that benefit our school community. We invite all families to participate in some way, as this will help make our events successful.
WHAT
The main fundraiser led by the HSA is the Marathon. In addition, there are many other ways to contribute, such as being a Classroom Representative, helping with the Fall Festival, or planning Teacher Appreciation Week. You can volunteer to help at lunch and recess, or with our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program.
WHY
Because it’s FUN! Volunteering is a great way to meet other parents, and our HSA meetings double as a fun way to socialize AND earn an hour towards your volunteer commitment, while ensuring the success of our fundraisers. We support our school while strengthening our community. At SJB, we teach our children to be the hands and feet of Jesus; there is no better way to do this than leading by example. Come be stewards of Christ with us, “for God loves a cheerful giver!” 2 Corinthians 9:6-7
