Volunteer Opportunities

The Auburn Area Catholic Athletic Association organized in November 1980 for fostering and promoting athletic activities at Auburn Area Catholic School.  Auburn Area Catholic School Athletic Association reports monthly to the School Committee. 

The Association provides league entrance fees, uniforms, equipment, and awards for the athletes at the Spring Sports Banquet.
 

The PTO is an organization made up of parents, teachers, and principal.  Each family is encouraged to attend the Association meetings.  This is a great opportunity for parents to come together and share their wonderful ideas.  The viewpoints and input of each family is needed and welcome.  The PTO reports monthly to the School Committee.

Annually the PTO funds the Auburn Area Catholic School library, school picnic, 5^th grade Camp Timbers retreat and other special projects as needed.  It also provides refreshments for special events.

The PTO (of which all families are immediate members upon enrollment) requires ten hours of volunteer service by families during the school year, including attending at least one PTO meeting throughout the year.  A list of opportunities to serve is given at the beginning of each school year. Every time you are volunteering, please record your name, date and event in the book provided in the school office.
 

Recognizing that the authority and responsibility for Catholic education within the parish rests with the pastor, the purpose of the School Committee shall be to serve as advisors to the pastor and principal in the development and definition of policies which shall govern the operation of Auburn Area Catholic School.  By-laws of this committee are available in the school office.

 

All staff working at AACS have gone through a rigorous screening process which includes Virtus Training, background checks, fingerprinting, PSOR, child abuse, and neglect screening. Parent volunteers are encouraged to help in the room, but they will not be in the direct supervision of any child or children participating in any of the Auburn Area Catholic School programs. As per Diocesan policy, any parent who is going to participate in field trips or volunteering, need to go through the Vitus Training offered by the Diocese of Saginaw and complete a background check.   Please review Diocesan policy at  https://saginaw.org/office-child-and-youth-protection
