parent hour information

The Parents and Friends Association, better known as the Parent Group, exists “to nurture a positive relationship between students, family, school staff, and the Board of Directors to support the Christian ministry of Salt Lake Lutheran High School.” Your support hours are a practical and important way to show support for the purpose of the Parents and Friends Association.

To help encourage a vigor for service, the Board of Directors of Salt Lake Lutheran High have adopted a plan of required support hours, similar to ones used in most local private schools.

For SLLHS, the plan is as follows:
For single parent families of students, a minimum of 12 parent-service hours per year/6 per semester.
For two parent families of students, a minimum of 20 parent-service hours per year/10 per semester.

While your involvement is preferred, for those parents unable to meet the required hours, the plan allows the parent to pay $10.00 for each unfulfilled hour, payable at the end of each semester. There are plenty of ways to do your support hours. But we think you’ll agree the follow suggestion will fit any family’s schedule.

In one semester, a family can get their required 10 hours this way:
Attend one work day = 3 hrs
Concession stand during volleyball = 3 hrs
Concession stand during basketball = 3 hrs
Buy $10 worth of candy/drinks/food for sale at concessions = 1 hr

There you go,10 hours in no time at all. Then record them in the blue book in the office to get credit for them.
