Volunteer Hours at Morning Star School
Each Morning Star family is required to complete a minimum of 20 service hours during the school year. These hours must be completed by early May. Any additional volunteer hours are greatly appreciated!
Volunteer Screening Process
To ensure a safe environment for all students, Morning Star School follows the Office of Youth Protection guidelines established by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. Before volunteering, all parents and family members must complete the following:
Protecting God’s Children Class (Safe Environment Training)
History Screening & Live Scan Fingerprinting
Even if you volunteer only once during the school year, you must complete the full screening process before participating in any school activities.
Until all steps are completed, you will not be allowed to volunteer at the school or work with children.
