All volunteers (this includes parents chaperoning field trips) must have completed Protecting God's Children, had a background check and signed the volunteer code of conduct. Per new Archdiocese of Detroit guidelines, if you took the PGC class before January of 2020, you must attend an online refresher course and complete a new background check.
If you have taken the Protecting God's Children before 2020, please email [email protected] or call
1-888-847-8870. They will get you set up with a link to the new online class.
If you have never taken a Protecting God's Children class through the Archdiocese of Detroit, you can register for a PGC workshop at www.virtus.org. Criminal Background Check forms are available in the school office.
