VOLUNTEER CLEARANCE

PRESCHOOL VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS

2023-24 School Year:

1. Preschool families will now be required to fulfill service hours, the amount of which is based on the preschool program in which your [oldest] child is enrolled (see below).
2. The cost associated with not fulfilling volunteer service hours will change from $15.00 per hour to $25.00 per hour.

NEW Preschool Service Hour Requirement*

• 2-day program - 5 hours per family per school year
• 3-day program - 10 hours per family per school year
• 5-day program - 20 hours per family per school year
   

TK-8 Volunteer Service Hour Requirement*

• 40 hours per family per school year (no change)

Volunteer service hours can be earned in a variety of ways. Some of the most common ways to earn hours are:

• 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
• St. Serra Sunday News
• Consult your New Family Ambassador
• Contact our PTO VP, Volunteers: volunteer@serrachool.org

• Each family is responsible for recording their service hours online.
• Volunteer hours for the 2023-24 school year must be logged by June 15, 2024. 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.

We are in the process of getting a new service hour recording program. 

Please keep track of any hours you have completed for the 2023-2024 school year. Once the new system ready, you will see another article in the St. Serra News on how to record and track your completed hours.

Thank you for your patience as we work to get the system up as soon as possible.
