The Parent Association assists the principal and staff to coordinate many services to the school. Some services include prayer, lunchroom/recess monitors, reception for special events, fundraising, hospitality for new families and faculty, room mothers, uniform sales and many other activities.
Holy Spirit Catholic School considers its parent volunteers as a very special resource. All parents are encouraged to volunteer in a variety of areas throughout the course of the year. All parents are required to complete the Virtus‘Protecting God’s Children’ training required by Diocese of Lansing in order to volunteer at the school. If a parent volunteers to help at school he/she must be aware of this responsibility. The school requires parents to follow the same standard of dress and conduct as is required of the teachers.Volunteers are expected to help supervise the students.
Family involvement in the school and the education of the children is central to the philosophy of Catholic Education as parents are the primary educators of their children. There are many ways in which you may volunteer at the schoolincluding but not limited to:
Lunch Helper
