during lunch recess. You can help every other week or
even once a month, or just sign up as a substitute.If you can volunteer, please call the school office or email: carol-ruskamp@cdolinc.net Volunteer in the Kitchen
You may also want to inquire about volunteering in the
kitchen.We have a few days every month that require volunteer help serving the students, with a time commitment of approximately 11:00 - 1:00. (no cooking required!) If you would like to be on the list of people we may call, you can contact the school office, or email Cathy and Adel at: food-service@cdolinc.net Room Parents
"Parents are asked to be an active part of the school
community by giving at least 20 hours to the school or
parish over the course of a school year.Room parents are responsible for planning and coordinating special parties, assisting with field trips, and helping the teacher with special projects or requests. (Please discuss ideas with teachers.) Background Checks Background Checks are required by the Diocese of Lincoln for all parent volunteers. We have completed this process for our teachers and staff, and this year we will be asking parents who volunteer in the school and accompany the students on field trips to fill out the additional paperwork required. Adults are also asked to view a 23 minute video on the reporting of child abuse. We are making this video available during parent/teacher conferences. We appreciate you taking time to view this film. There will be a sign in sheet in the gym for you to record your name. Once you have completed the background check and viewed the film, your information will remain on file as long as your child is a student at North American Martyrs. This is not an annual process. Thank you for your cooperation.
About Volunteering There will be volunteer opportunities, such as cleaning, upkeep of grounds, and special projects, throughout the year. Parents are asked to track their hours on special cards or sheets provided. Parental involvement is intended to help parents teach children, by example, that service is an important part of being a Christian. In addition, it shows children the high value that parents place on their education by their involvement in the school. It also helps the school free up funds for other needs. When making specific commitments of time and talent to the school, please remember that teachers and staff will be relying on the help at the time and day arranged. Please consider this commitment as you would a paid job and be there according to your agreement. Please call in advance if you are unable to fulfill the commitment." - From the Student Handbook 2007-08, page 4 |
