SJHS PARENTS

Parents are vital to Saint Joseph High School. Therefore, we have two ways in which the school invites parents/guardians to become partners with the school in the education of their daughters:

FONTBONNE CIRCLE

This organization meets quarterly September 9th , November 4th, January 13th and March 10th. The organization's primary goal is to support the total school program through fundraising efforts. All parents are members, and are encouraged to attend these meetings. The dates of all meetings are noted in the school calendar provided to each SJHS family during book buying days. Attendance equals one parent volunteer hour per family.

The PFJSO coordinates several parent events throughout the year in which SJHS family and friends are invited to attend and volunteer for (for information, please contact the office of Institutional Advancement at 562-925-5073 x125):

Coffee With The Principal – Parents/Guardians are invited to join Dr. Mendoza for coffee and refreshments in the Media Center from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. on October 11th, January 31st and April 4th

POWDER PUFF – PARENT/GUARDIAN VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Any junior or senior parents who would like to volunteer to be a team parent, a coach, or a game first aide for powder puff may receive service hours. There will be a mandatory meeting on January 18 at 5:00 pm. Parents volunteering will need to have a copy of their fingerprints and have gone through the VIRTUS training. If they have not gone through the training, there will be a training session after the meeting. Seniors will be practicing on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Juniors will be practicing on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6-8 pm beginning January 24. The game will be on Friday, March 4 at 7:00 pm. Copies of both forms need to be turned in before attending the first practice.


SJHS – CDC H1N1 Flu Guidelines

Please be aware that we are working to be in total compliance with the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and Archdiocese of Los Angeles recommendations for managing the pandemic H1N1 flu. The guidelines suggested can be found on CDC website. We will continue to keep our families informed of SJHS policies in this regard.
