 About
By employing an effective, genuine, Participation Program,
Assumption School is able to keep the tuition fees at an acceptable
level. Proceeds
from this Program have also helped cushion some of our operational
expenses.
New Parents interested
in applying for the Participation Program must indicate this on
the registration form. Specialized skills
that are identified will help the Participation Coordinator to fill
positions as they become available. New parents are required
to attend a mandatory meeting in the spring (date to be announced
each year). Among other things, this meeting will outline the
Participation Program and give a brief background and rationale.
Parents may also be required to attend an additional meeting as called
by the category manager.
Upon acceptance parents
are expected to make themselves available for a full twelve months
of that school year, starting in July. A
MINIMUM of 50 hours participation per year is required.
Using the Bingo Model as a baseline most workers are required to
work at least 4 hours 13 times a year, totaling 52 hours per year. The
Education Committee requires from all Participating
Parents a set of ten monthly cheques (dated September to June) for
the amount of $100 per month. If a family fails to meet
its participation requirements in any month, the cheque for that
month will be immediately deposited. All un-cashed non-participation
cheques will be destroyed, or may be picked up by you, at the end
of June. The Education Committee would like to reinforce
that it is against policy to hire outside
help to fulfill you participation requirements and therefore unacceptable.
Parents
wishing to change their participation category may apply to do so
by completing a category transfer form. You can obtain
this form from your current category manager. Most category
transfers take place in the spring and category openings are advertised
in the school newsletter.
