ADVANCEMENT

volunteers

(updated October, 2009)

Valuable assistance to our educational program is provided by parent volunteers. Many parents and others help teachers as room parents or teacher aids (please contact individual teachers).  We have many school functions that may require parents to volunteer in order for the event to be successful. Some of the happenings that St. Anne participates in each year are two Book Fairs, a Santa Shop, Gallimaufry Day, and our many student activities that are in need of parent’s involvement such as Forensics, Scouts, and Math/Science Olympiads.

According to the Archdiocese of Detroit, every person working (or volunteering) in a school environment is required to take the Protecting God's Children Workshop.  All teachers, administrators, coaches, lunchroom workers, playground parents, volunteers, room parents, etc. MUST have completed this workshop in order to be part of any school function.  If you have not participated in this program, you need to register online at the Archdiocese website (www.aodonline.org) and go to the safe environment tab on the left hand side and then go to Virtus Workshop Schedule & Registration to register for a class.

Mandatory service hours are instituted for the St. Anne festival each year. This fundraiser is a very important event for our school and we require your participation. At least one parent from each family will be required to provide at least eight (8) hours of festival service for the 2009-2010 school year. If you choose to forgo that option, you will be charged a $400 fee that will replace your time.
