It is required that any volunteer interaction with St. Patrick Catholic School students be in compliance with the Protecting God’s Children program. Since having introduced this program in our Parish and school, our volunteers, as well as our staff, have fulfilled this requirement. All families that are new to our school will have until October 30th of that school year to complete this program. Upon completion and submission of certificate to the school office, you may then participate with students.

Please check online for dates and locations where you may attend the Protecting God’s Children program. Go to www.virtus.org for seminar listings.

Please know that all of our staff is instructed to check our database to make sure parents who attend field trips, volunteer in classrooms, etc. have obtained their required criminal background check and completed the Protecting God’s Children program. If you desire to interact in any student-related event, you must have completed these requirements. Volunteer Criminal Background Check forms can be found on FACTS SIS and must be completed annually.

Again, thank you for your support. If you have questions, please call our school office at (248) 698-3240.
