Parent Participation Program Hours
Parent volunteers are an intregal part of our St. Patrick Catholic Community. Without the involvement of our parents many of the programs we offer would simply not exist. All families of students enrolled in St. Patrick Catholic School are required to complete 20 service hours (PPP hours)as part of their contract. Service hours may be completed at school or church and all hours will be counted together. All hours must be completed by May 31, 2012. NO EXTENSIONS WILL BE GRANTED.
In September each family receives a YELLOW PPP Hour Envelope. Inside contains a record sheet for you to log your hours on. Envelopes will be collected once a month on the first Monday of every month if you have hours to be recorded. Once the 20 service hour requirement has been met, there is no need to send your envelope in for recording.
