Parents, please use the helpful links at the left. Parents at Our Lady of Perpetual Help School can become involved in the school in many different ways: School Council This is a body of nine members who act as an advisory council to the school, principal and pastor. They represent the people of the parish and the school in evaluating school policies, programs, practices and finances and recommending courses of action to provide quality education while best utilizing all of our resources. School council members are expected to attend all meetings as well as participate in an ongoing committee. Council members are elected in the spring of each year for a three-year term. Parent-School Association Membership in the OLPH Parent-School Association is open to parents, grandparents and legal guardians of all OLPH students, from preschool through the eighth grade. The association is governed by a steering committee, which fosters unity among OLPH families through a variety of activities. The OLPH Parent-School Association assists with special projects to enhance each student’s learning experience. Endowment Council The purpose of this foundation is to support and assist Our Lady of Perpetual Help School and Parish in its educational mission by providing supplemental funding for existing and future programs and services. Donations become a perpetual investment because, under normal circumstances, only the income of the Foundation is used, not the principal. The foundation consists of a Board of Trustees, the school principal, and pastor. Volunteers Aides of all kinds are an invaluable resource to the school. Parents can volunteer to help out in a variety of ways: instructional aides (tutors), teacher aides, library and clerical aides, field trip drivers and by responding to special requests from teachers and the principal for other needs. All volunteers are expected to dress and act in a manner that reflects well in the school, to be business-like in their work and to respect the reputation of families and children. Volunteers are expected to be loyal to both the school personnel and the students in their dealings outside of school. Volunteers are not considered part of the school staff, but are nonetheless a real asset to the school community. All school families who are registered as Active Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parishioners are required to perform at least 30 volunteer hours from the time of registration for the school year (March 1) until the time of registration for the following school year (February 28). This is an HONOR SYSTEM, where families keep track of their own hours and submit them in writing to the school office. Tracking forms are given to each family at registration time. Extra forms are always available in the school office. An accounting will be provided to each family in the students’ quarterly report card. If the 30 hour requirement is not met by February 28, the family will be charged the Non-Active Parishioner rate of tuition for the following school year. Families with only an eighth grader are exempt. Hours may be performed for any OLPH school or parish function or group. To View or Print recent newsletters, click the links below
