Volunteers Make It Happen!!!

VOLUNTEERS

Bishop Guertin High School has a proud history of involvement and support by parents, family members and friends. Volunteers offer significant help in keeping our organization running smoothly, and each volunteer is a valued member of the Bishop Guertin High School community.

Once again we come to you seeking your time, energy and talents. Listed on this page are a few of the areas in which we will be needing assistance. Please take the time to look them over, complete the form on the back and return it to school as soon as possible. Just a few hours per week or month, day or evening, will make a world of difference.
