We are looking for parents from grades PreK3 through 8th grade who would like to volunteer their time, energy, and enthusiasm to be a Room Parent for the 2023-2024 school year. If you would like to volunteer, please read the responsibilities below and kindly complete this form no later than Monday, September 11th. Once volunteers are chosen, the Room Parent meeting will be held on Friday, September 15th at 2 pm in the OLGC cafeteria.
We would like to thank you in advance for your continued support of Our Lady of Good Counsel School. We will notify you as soon as possible if you have been selected. Room Parents will need to attend a Virtus training session and be fingerprinted to comply with Diocesan policies.
