St. James Catholic School K-8 Mission Program

To build a strong relationship among parents, teachers and children, all parents of students attending St. James K-8 School must volunteer each year. Generations of parishioners have built our school and parish community at St. James. Each with a desire to form the next generation of disciples and citizens. We are blessed by the support of dedicated parishioners for our parish’s largest mission, St. James School. 
 
Parishioners are happy to help support the firmly Catholic education that St. James offers with the expectation that these families in turn will invest back into the parish and school as a volunteer and further engage in their own faith development. To keep this amazing work alive we have created guidelines to outline our expectations and accountability. Keeping God in the classroom and families is our focus.
 
Mission Hour Guidelines
  • The volunteer year will begin May 1st and end on April 30th of the following year.
  • All families are required to give 25 mission hours
  • Any family member or friend may complete these hours up to 10 hours unless other permissions have been obtained, but non-family members must designate in advance that they are completing these hours for a particular family. This is done by the donor family informing the school volunteer coordinator in writing via the school.
  • There are no exemptions for faculty or parish staff.
  • Hours must be logged by each family in Track It Forward. They are being tracked and monitored throughout the year. click the Registration Link below to setup your account.
