Every parent is automatically a member of the school's Parent Council.

Active volunteers meet regularly to offer their support to programs and committees that provide immeasurable service to the life of our school community.

Volunteer Programs

Hot Lunch Program

One day each week, parents provide a much appreciated lunch to students, faculty and staff. Based on a schedule organized by class parents, and overseen by the parent Lunch Program Coordinator, three to four parents bring and serve lunch to students, faculty, and staff for $5. The proceeds of this popular program go to the Student Activities Fund. The schedule is drawn up on a rotational basis, and all parents across all four grades are encouraged to participate in some way, either by preparing food, serving, or donating money toward the food expenses.

Library Volunteers

Parents who enjoy supporting our library may volunteer to come in on an as needed basis to assist with a variety of tasks including cataloging, shelving, and processing books and magazines. Volunteers go through a brief training offered by the librarian. This is an excellent volunteer opportunity for parents who need to customize their schedule. Volunteer hours can be arranged anytime between 8am and 5pm.

Annual Fund Appeal

Each year the school asks parent volunteers to participate in the activities around our Annual Fund campaign. Each class has at least one Annual Fund ambassador who spreads the word to the parents in their class about the mission and goals of this effort. Volunteers who especially appreciate the value of our high school's education to their students and who enjoy communicating to their fellow parents about the significance of their monetary contribution, be it big or small, are excellent candidates for this important volunteer work.

Special Events

Winter Holiday Lunch

Parents organize, prepare, and serve a special holiday lunch on the last day of school before the Winter Break in December. This luncheon has become a favorite high school tradition, and it is organized by a parent coordinator who involves all parents in the school as voluntary participants in this fabulous meal. Parents prepare all of the food, setup and decorate the gym, and then serve a full buffet luncheon with turkey and all the trimmings for all of the students, faculty and staff. Everyone participates!

Spring Night & Auction

April is the month for our Spring Night and Auction. This is the high school's major fundraiser of the year, and it requires many volunteers to create this incredible event. The Spring Night coordinator works with volunteers to procure auction items, including artwork, vacations and trips, services, and a multitude of other items. This catered event includes entertainment, a silent and live auction. Our seniors serve as waiters and assistants throughout the evening.
