Home & School Volunteer Activities

Volunteer Form

Volunteers are the backbone of our programs and crucial to the success of private/parochial schools.  Since tuition alone covers only 85% of the overall costs to operate private/parochial schools, it is very important that all families actively participate in available volunteer activities.  There are enough opportunities for everyone to find a talent that they can contribute to OLV that will either save on expenses or accent revenue.  Based on the descriptions below, please be generous when you are making your selections on the attached Selection Form. 

All volunteers who may come in contact with students MUST complete an Archdiocese of Atlanta volunteer packet, view a Safe Environment DVD and be background checked.  You may request a packet from the front office.
