Immaculate Conception School relies on family involvement to provide the most comprehensive experience for our students. Parents and family members work alongside faculty and staff to support events, recess & lunch supervision, fundraising efforts, tutoring, and other activities throughout the year.
WE BUILD COMMUNITY BY DOING FAMILY SERVICE HOURS:
Each family must work 14** SERVICE HOURS by December 20 = 25** total Incomplete service hours will be charged at current minimum wage twice yearly.
There are additional requirements for those families receiving financial assistance.
Tracking Requirement
Volunteer hours must be logged by: 1. a signature with time in the volunteer binder in the office, and 2. entering it on the family tab on Gradelink.
