Saint Timothy Catholic School

Points for Parents

Saint Timothy Catholic School is a wonderful place for our children to grow both academically and spiritually! The administration and PTO continue to believe that parent involvement and participation in school activities is not only a means to show your support for the faculty and the school, but is absolutely necessary to maintain and expand many of the academic and extracurricular services offered by STS for our children.

Requirements:

·  12 hours of service (60 points)

·  OR “opt out” by purchasing their Points for Parents for $5 a point for a total of $300

Please note that all volunteers who come in contact with students are required to undergo a personal background check and complete a VIRTUS child safety training course. For more information about the VIRTUS program please visit parent resources on the website or contact Mrs. Moses in the front office.

We are blessed to have many families who continue to contribute well over the requested 12 hours of service each year. This is what makes STS such a special community!

If you have any questions about the “Points for Parents” program please contact Tara Irons at or Kelly Schmank at . To find out about volunteer opportunities please contact Sandy Ralston at .

Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our children.
