Volunteer Opportunities

As a Catholic school, we encourage all parents and guardians to become part of our MCPS community through a spirit of volunteerism. There are a plethora of volunteer opportunities throughout the year for families to actively participate in the school’s mission and life.

All families are expected to give 40 service hours to the school.
