Service Hours

Family Service Hours Program & Volunteer Opportunities

Holy Trinity is fortunate to have parents with wonderful talents and resources. We welcome your gift of time and talent in participating in our students’ educational experience.

Requirements

Each family is responsible for 15 hours of service per school year. Single-parent families and families with a spouse who is deployed through the military are responsible for 7.5 hours of service. Only parents, grandparents and guardians may serve; extended family such as grandparents, aunts, and uncles do not qualify. At the close of the school year, for every hour NOT served, a fee of $20.00 per hour will be assessed. ALL Service Hours are due by the last day of school. No exceptions will be made and no hours will be added after that date. Final report cards will be withheld until the requirements are met. The Family Service Hours contract is part of the mandatory school forms that must be filled out online the summer before the school year begins.

To report service hours, please use the X2VOL program that is available through the PARENT PORTAL.
