Fundraiser's
Fundraising activities are an essential part of OLPH’s endeavor to keep tuition rates at a minimum. The cost of educating each child is deferred by these communal activities. Thus, it is vitally important that each parent/guardian realizes his/her responsibility to cooperate with and participate in these activities. If families do not wish to support fundraising activities, the loss of income will cause a substantial increase in each family’s tuition rate.
Mandatory participation is required of OLPH families for annual fundraising
events. These include, but are not limited to:
- Bishops’ Car Raffle
- Halloween Carnival
- Annual Walkathon
- Nite-at-the-Races Fundraiser
- Spring Fundraiser (cash-drawing giveaway)
Our Lady of Perpetual Help School presents the

A Nite @ the Races is an “Evening Getaway for Adults”. This is an event where adults 21 years of age and older can socialize, have fun, and be themselves!

Proceeds will benefit Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School.
Parents' Club
The Parents’ Club is an organization consisting of all parents and/or guardians whose children are enrolled in Our Lady of Perpetual Help School. The group has three main functions:
- Plan and organize fundraising events to financially support the school
- Provide an avenue of communication between parents, administration, and the school board
- Support the rules, regulations, and operation of Our Lady of Perpetual Help School
Parents' Club meetings are held four times per year and it is mandatory that at least one parent from each family attend each time. At the first meeting, the principal will review school policies, programs, procedures, and introduce any new items for the year for new and returning members. Additional details are in the Parent/Student Handbook.
Student Attendance Policy
State law requires regular student attendance for classes in school unless excused for a valid reason; this is defined by diocesan policies #5111-5113 and local school policy. Elementary-school students, who are absent 20 or more days per semester (or more than 13 days per trimester) without a doctor’s excuse or other comparable professional excuse, may be asked to withdraw from school or be retained. The final decision rests with the principal in all cases. Students are expected to be on campus from 8:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Students may not leave the campus for any reason without written authorization from parent/guardian.
