Volunteer Service Hours We invite our school families at St. Stephen Catholic School to be active participants in events and activities in their child’s education through volunteerism. We ask for 40 hours of your time throughout an academic year. Participating not only assists teachers, builds community but also benefits your children and classmates in their learning. Ways you can get some hours in before the end of school are: classroom field trips (if you have completed the Called to Protect class and go as an official chaperone), lunch and recess duty, Fine Arts Night set up and clean up, and Field Day. The next opportunities for volunteering are June 16th and 17th for the Strawberry Days float decoration and the Festival of Diversity on August 26th and 27th. If you haven’t logged in your hours into Sycamore, please do so as soon as possible. We will also accept handwritten or emailed hours. Thank you for participating in the education of your children and, with your help, building our community of faith. Horario de Servicio Voluntario Como familia de la Escuela Católica San Esteban los invitamos a que sean parte de nuestra familia escolar participando en los eventos y actividades con sus hijos voluntariamente. Les pedimos 40 horas en el transcurso del año. Al participar no solo ayuda a los maestros, la comunidad, sino también a sus hijos y compañeros de clase. Las maneras en que usted puede ayudar antes del final de este año escolar son: paseos de salón, ayuda cuidando los niños durante la comida y el recreo, Noche de Arte, y/o el Día de Campo. Otras fechas serán el 16 y 17 de junio, Strawberry Days, para la decoración y el Festival de la Diversidad el 26 y 27 de agosto. Si usted ha participado y no a ingresado las horas en Sycamore, por favor de hacerlo lo más pronto posible o entregar las horas manuscritas o por correo electrónico a la oficina escolar. Muchísimas gracias por su participación en la educación de su hijo(a) y la ayuda a nuestra comunidad de fe.
