Parents provide an invaluable service to our school and we believe they are an important part of our school's success. The Holy Family Catholic School Parent Club unites parents and families together to support the spiritual and educational values of our school. All parents and guardians of registered Holy Family Catholic School students are members of the Parent Club. The Parent Club assists the school in sponsoring activities that further develop our school as a community through family service, fundraising, community support, educational enrichments, and social events. With parent involvement we have the unique opportunity to build and foster a strong community of service and support, in keeping with our Catholic faith, values and ideals.
The Parent Club provides an abundance of volunteer opportunities for parents and families to become more involved in their children’s school life and to fulfill their role as primary educator. Whether they assist in classrooms, lend a hand with fundraising or offer a special skill, parents enrich every aspect of education at Holy Family Catholic School. The Parent Club promotes parent participation and provides revenue from fundraising efforts. As parents of Holy Family Catholic School students we each need to be instrumental in making this school the best it can be for our children. making this school the best it can be for our children

The overall success of our school depends on the active participation of our families. All parents and guardians of registered Holy Family Catholic School students are members of the Parent Club.
The Parent Club is organized to:
The purpose of this agreement is to help parents and guardians of Holy Family Catholic School students understand their involvement requirements for each school year.
Each family is required to fulfill a minimum number of Family Service Points and purchase a minimum amount of Scrip. For the upcoming school year, these requirements must be fulfilled between the following dates:
Family Service Points are earned through participation in either fundraising or non-fundraising activities.
Fundraising points are points assigned to activities which help raise money for our school. Points earned do not always equate to “hours” worked on an event. Points are awarded on the basis of responsibility, hours spent, size of the event or project and the financial impact to the school. However, there will still be hourly positions available.
Each family is responsible for reporting their own points upon completion of their assigned activities. Service points will not be accepted after 30 days of activity.When you sign up for a volunteer assignment and a conflict arises, please notify the chairperson as soon as possible. It is your responsibility to find and secure a replacement to fulfill your shift(s) and advise the chairperson who your replacement will be. The points associated with your shifts(s) will not be credited if you cannot complete your assignment.
The success of our events is due to the strength of our volunteers and their efforts. Parents/guardians are encouraged to continue to support the school even after fulfilling their required points by volunteering their time and participating in the school's fundraising efforts. Family Service Points are not transferable and may not be carried over to the following school year.
To qualify as a Holy Family Catholic School Family Service volunteer points the activity or event has to be directly related to Holy Family Catholic School. We respect that many families are involved in community service, Christian service in our parish and outside organizations. We applaud and encourage your involvement in our parish and community, however those hours cannot be counted toward your Family Service points at Holy Family Catholic School. Some examples of these types of activities are:
All individuals participating in volunteer activities involving direct contact with students (i.e. coaching, classroom helper, field trip supervision or transportation) must have the following requirements fulfilled:
Scrip is a school fundraising program whereby our school earns money through the sale of gift cards or certificates. Family Scrip card participation totals will be available at the end of each trimester and posted on the secured portion of the school website as a spreadsheet. Please note:
1. Credit Cards will not be accepted. Exceptions will be considered for large scrip purchases where the merchant profit exceeds the standard credit card fees. Holy Family bookkeeper and Scrip Chair will approve.
2. EFT (Electronic Fund Transfers) will only be accepted for purchases of $50.00 or more. Purchases less than $50.00 can be paid for with cash or check.
3. E-Scrip and using grocery reward cards are strongly encouraged, but will not be tied to a participation level. However, earnings generated from a family, may offset the amount due.
