Volunteer Groups

Bingo Volunteers: Since the proceeds from the Thursday night parish bingo benefit the school, the HSA supports this function by providing volunteers. At the beginning of the school year each class is assigned a month for which the parents will provide on-site kitchen assistance and baked goods to be sold at the bingo for each Thursday of that particular month.

School Lunch Program: The school lunch program consists of two phases. First, the preparation and distribution of coupons used by the students to obtain a hot lunch, the tallying of the coupons to place lunch orders with the supplier and the inventory and the purchasing of the supplies used in the program. The second phase places a team of volunteers in the lunch room each day to serve the lunch and drinks, attend to the needs of the children and clean up when the lunch period is over.

Library/Book Fair: This group has a variety of duties. They prepare the books for inclusion in the library, educate the students in the care of and respect for books, help students find appropriate reading material and check books in and out. They also provide story time for the Kindergarten students. The book fair volunteers set up displays, staff the sale throughout the week and pack up when it is over. The books earned through the sale of books at the fair are then added to the library.

Beautification: The people on this committee make sure the grounds around the school and church always look their best. They plant flowers, pull weeds, pick up litter, spread mulch and whatever else it takes to keep the area beautiful.
