 Philosophy
Assumption School has a very active Parent Participation
program. This
program has two main goals:
1.
To build community by having parents work
together towards a common goal.
2.
To raise funds for the school, reduce
expenses or provide service to the Parish.
The minimum number of hours required
each year is 50. Some
jobs, however, will require more than 50 hours. Some positions
will also require participants to attend mandatory meetings. These
are generally scheduled, and notification given to parents, at the
beginning of the year.
In order to achieve the goals of the program,
we need the full commitment of all participants. In other words,
you are either fully in the Participation program or you are fully
out of the program—there
is no in between.
If you choose to be a part of the Parent Participation
program, it is expected that you will look upon this responsibility
with the same seriousness as you would a paid job (as a member
of the program you will receive a Parent Participation tuition
rate). It is
expected that you will show up on time for your assigned shifts,
carry out your tasks responsibly, and not leave until your shift
if over.
Parent participation means that the PARENT must
perform the work. As
stated in our registration package, you cannot hire someone to do
the work for you, nor can you send other family members (unless these
family members have been trained and are recognized members of that
category).
