We love having parents volunteer throughout the year and encourage you to get involved! The safety of your child is important to us at Divine Mercy Catholic School. Through the Archdiocese of Minneapolis and St. Paul, we offer several methods to keep our children safe. There are several committees to join, as well as  annual events and fundraisers to assist with. Visit our "Committee's" page to learn about school groups.

All parents wishing to volunteer must take the following few steps:

1) Virtus Training (Click here to register online) - Click to see where there is a new training time and place.

2) Background Check - a background check is done on all volunteers to ensure of no criminal history. In order to volunteer at Divine Mercy Catholic School, a background check must be done.

3) Volunteer Code of Conduct - all volunteers at Divine Mercy Catholic School must sign the "Volunteer Code of Conduct." This form reviews what we expect of our volunteers. (Volunteer Code of Conduct Form.)
