VOLUNTEER
Volunteering is a KEY to your student’s success, along with lots of fun! You can make that difference! Please prayerfully consider helping us out!
Lunchroom Support Signup
Lunchroom: Help out during lunch times with student needs i.e. open milk cartons, assist with silverware, etc. The lunchroom is in need of 3 volunteers EACH DAY. The link below gets you a 2 hour spot (10:30 - 12:30) on any day or days that work for you. Even 10:30 – 11:30 would be GREAT! Just put a note in the remarks. You do not need to sign up for consecutive days or weeks.
Virtual Academy Support Signup
Virtual Academy Support: Assist small groups of students with signing into computers, passwords, etc. Once students are logged in and tutoring, you may work on your laptop, read, knit, etc. There are several time slots available throughout the day.
Recess/Playground Supervision Signup
Recess/Playground Supervision: We have a GREAT new volunteer spot we would LOVE to fill each day! Hello! Do you love fresh air? A nice brisk hour outside a day or two a week? We have a spot for YOU! We would love to give our teachers a bit of extra time each day! 2 shifts each day! We hope you will prayerfully consider!

2023-24 FUNDRAISING
Current fundraisers and the percent of the fundraising goal contributed from each:
- Catholic United Financial Raffle/Matching Gifts (70 percent)

School Fund
The Church of St. Stephen School Fund is another way to provide support for our school. This fund primarily provides financial aid to families in need. Our school is blessed to have substantial support from our parish. Each year, at least 35 percent of the cost to educate a student is paid by the parish. Students receiving financial aid receive an additional reduction in tuition.
To contribute to this fund, contact the Church of St. Stephen or Donate Now.
School Service Projects
- Each lent, the school selects an organization to be the beneficiary of funds raised during the season.
- Classes periodically introduce additional programs to provide funds or items for those in need in our community. Watch the school newsletter for information
- Annual Coat Drive and clothing basics for ACBC. In November and December, St. Stephen’s collects clean, gently used winter coats for children and all ages and donates them to the ACBC. In addition, new packages of underwear and socks are high-need items and are included in our collection. Other gently used winter items such as hats, gloves, mittens, boots, scarves, and more may be donated as well.
