Dear Parents,

Please be advised that if you intend to be on school grounds during the school day, chaperone on field trips, be a lunch and recess monitor, serve as a room parent, and volunteer to be a coach, the Archdiocese requires you to meet two requirements.

1. You must complete the online Virtus course.
2. You have been lived scanned (fingerprinted) and are cleared to work with minors.

Please contact the office if you need more information regarding these Archdiocesan requirements.

The $50 Re-Registration Late Fee will be applied to any Re-Registration for 2024-2025 school year made after Monday, April 8, 2024. Also, if you referred a family to All Souls Catholic School, it's not too late to get your 10% reduction on your 2024-2025 Re-Registration Fee.

Dear Parents,

Please review your child's progress on schoolspeak. If your child is not earning the grades that you expect, reach out to your child's teacher ASAP. Students make the most progress when their parents and teachers work together as a team.

Dear All Souls Catholic School Commiunity,

Bingo allowed us to raise tution no more than 5% for the 2024-2025 School Year. I know we are nearing the end of this school year and all of us are beginning to experience spring fever. However, I encourage as many parents as possible to volunteer for Bingo for the remainder of this school year. Your help is greatly needed.

Thank you in advance for any assistance that you may provide to our Bingo events.

Requirements for All Coaches

The Archdiocese of San Francisco requires that all coaches have the following:

1. You have completed the online Virtus course
2. You have been live scanned (finger printed) and are cleared to work with minors

There are NO EXCEPTIONS to these requirements. Any coach not meeting these requirements cannot be placed on a PPSL roster and therefore cannot sit on the bench of any team. If you have signed up to coach next year for Parent Hours, make sure you have completed the online Virtus course and have completed and cleared the Live Scan process

The due date for these requirements is Monday, June 3, 2024. Coaches that complete these requirements after June 3rd will not be placed on the list of approved coaches. Therefore, be aware that the Live Scan process can take up to 2 weeks to clear.

On June 4th, the Athletic Board will receive a list of coaches from All Souls School that have completed these two requirements. All parents that have expressed an interest in coaching and meet the criteria stated above will be considered for the coaching positions available in the program by the Athletic Board. It is however the Athletic Board, with the approval of the school principal and pastor that make the final decision. All head coaches must also work with 2 assistant coaches. Therefore, the coaches must be willing to collaborate with one another and is a requirement for the position of coach of any All Souls School athletics team.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation on this very important
