Volunteering

One of our greatest blessings is our engaged parent community who make our children’s educational experience as rich as possible. Parental involvement, whether it be volunteering in the classroom, providing administrative support, or lending special expertise, is essential to the strength of our community and each child’s educational journey.

Each family commits a minimum of 35 total volunteer hours (17.5 hours for single parent and preschool families) to the school and/or the parishes. Parents, students, other relatives, friends, and neighbors may contribute the hours. There are many varied and rewarding service opportunities for you to help. You can find a calling that matches your skills, the level of commitment you can make, and your schedule. Volunteering with all school-based activities and clubs, including CYO sports, qualify as volunteer hours, as do any volunteer hours completed at either St. Bridget and Assumption parishes. Volunteering with organizations outside of ASB, even those with participating ASB students, do not quality. Parents may sign up during the school registration process in the spring, at back-to-school sign-ups in the fall, and on an as-needed basis throughout the year.

Current volunteer needs are published each week in the Bulldog Bulletin in the Volunteering section. For questions, please email [email protected].

Volunteer Requirements
