VOLUNTEER CLEARANCE

PRESCHOOL VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS

2024-25 School Year:

Each family is asked to volunteer their time and talents in service to the school each year. These service hours help to build the St. Serra community while also supporting the needs of our school and students. Volunteer hours for the 2024-25 school year will be accepted from June 16, 2024, to June 13, 2025. All hours reported must have been completed during the 2024-2025 school year (with the exception of hours completed during the summer months). Volunteer hours are based on the following:

• Preschool 2-day program: 5 hours per family per school year
• Preschool 3-day program: 10 hours per family per school year
• Preschool 5-day program: 20 hours per family per school year
• TK-8th Grade: 40 hours per family per school year

Please visit Serra Cause Connect (our volunteer site) throughout the year to view and sign up for upcoming opportunities. New opportunities go live every Monday morning at 9:00 a.m. There are many opportunities to fulfill your hours, such as: 

• Classroom help
• Yard Duty
• Serving hot lunch
• Event support and pre-event planning
• Volunteering at events
• “At-home” projects

• Check out our Volunteer Opportunities page

• Each family is responsible for recording their service hours online.
• Volunteer hours for the 2024-25 school year must be logged by June 13, 2025. Families who have not completed and/or recorded their required service hours by this date will be invoiced through FACTS for any unfilled hours at the rate of $25 per hour.
• You can opt to buy-out volunteer hours at a rate of $25 per hour.
• There are opportunities to earn double hours for some shifts at certain events.
• Volunteer hours must be served by immediate family, i.e. parents or grandparents, and are non-transferable between families (i.e. you cannot "donate" them to another St. Serra family).
• “Extra” volunteer hours do not carry over to the following academic year.

All service hours must be logged and verified through Serra Cause Connect. Service hours must be submitted within 30 days of completion. Hours submitted after this time frame may not be approved.
