Family volunteers have an important place in our school. The children, the parents, and the school all benefit because of volunteer participation. Therefore, parents are welcome in all areas of school activities and routine. We recognize that our parents are the first and best educators of our children both spiritually and academically. Families are encouraged to be physically present within the school day and to become better acquainted with the school's environment and with the teachers who guide the children.
