Student Service
Hours Program
Financial aid is given to about half of the families at Lancaster Catholic High School. The Lancaster Catholic Community, either through the parishes or directly to the school, donates all the financial aid. The Student Service Program is a way for the students to express their thanks and give to the school community. Students are asked to inquire directly to Lancaster Catholic High School about fulfilling the service hours. Summer hours are offered at the end of the school year.

The second choice for fulfilling the assigned hours is to work for a Catholic parish. Please call the pastor or church office to arrange a work schedule. Activities such as volunteering for a clean-up crew, volunteering in the church office or serving as an assistant coach for a parish athletic program are examples of acceptable service hours. Please remember that normal parish duties such as altar serving, choir, etc. do not qualify as service hours.

Only if work is not available at Lancaster Catholic High School or your parish, will additional organizations be considered. A request to have hours performed at non-profit organizations other than Lancaster Catholic High School must be cleared by the Vice Principal for Student Services and Facilities before the hours are performed - even if the hours and non-profit organization had been approved in prior years. Please remember that the needs of Lancaster Catholic High School and the supporting parishes must be considered before other organizations for the Student Service Hours Program.

Hours performed at parishes and other approved organizations should be reported to the Lancaster Catholic High School Office on letterhead, and signed by the student's supervisor.

Because of the volume of volunteer hours needed to run the events, parents may earn service hours for their students by working at the Athletic Association Carnival in June or the Music Association Marching Band Competition in the fall. Parents may also earn service hours by working side by side with their students on summer maintenance and custodial work crews. These three activities are the only activities where parents' hours will be counted toward student service hours.

Assigned hours must be completed by the second Friday in May before transcripts, grades or diplomas are released, and may not be carried forward to a future year. Credit for the up-coming school year begins on the day after the last day of school. Uncompleted hours will result in a charge of $5 per hour. Hours will be included in the tuition contract.
