Mandatory Service Hours
As parents are the primary educators of their children, it is important that they participate in
the educational activities of their children in a variety of ways. Based on your tuition plan,
parents are required to serve between 30 – 60 hours each academic year. Parents may earn
service hours through a multitude of methods including but not limited to volunteering in the
classroom, chaperoning on field trips, assisting with special school events, such as the
Halloween carnival, volunteering for the Fiesta, donating specified items to the classroom or
school. Only one parent/family member per field trip will receive service hours for their
student. If parents are unable to participate in these options, they may elect to buy out of their
service hours at a rate of $15 an hour.
All parents/adults who wish to meet service hour
requirements on campus or attending a field trip MUST be VIRTUS trained. Volunteers must
provide proof of their certification when asked and prior to volunteering. VIRTUS must be
updated every three years to stay current.
Please see the appendix for our Safeguard the Children information and Zero Tolerance Policy.
Fundraising Expectation
All families are required to fundraise a certain amount of money to help off-set the cost of
educating their child. Based on your tuition plan, parents are required to generate profit for
the school each academic year. Fundraising opportunities will be detailed throughout the year.
Parents may elect to simply pay the fundraising requirement. One-half of all fundraising will be
due prior to the Christmas break. Families who fall short in meeting this requirement in the fall
will have the balance added to their FACTS account. In the spring, all accounts must be settled
through the office by May 15.
Parents and students are not permitted to sell or promote products on campus without the
permission of the school.
