Roncalli Home and School sponsors the
following:
Homeroom Parents - These parent volunteers sign up at Open House in the fall to
assist classroom teachers with class parties, provide drivers for outings and
contact parent helpers when needed.
General Mills Box Tops and Campbell Soup Company Labels for Education Program -
Box tops and labels are collected at both churches and all schools to be used to acquire
school equipment in the spring.
Fund Raisers - The Roncalli Walk-a-Thon and Roncalli’s spring carnival are significant fundraisers sponsored by Home and School. Monies raised support our programs and supplement the general education fund.
- Roncalli Walk-a-Thon: A terrific family event held early in the school year,
the Walk-a-Thon brings together K-6 students and their families to walk or
bike around Wylie Park and raise money for the school through pledges.
Hundreds of people participate every year.
- Sock Hop: A mid-year family fun night during Catholic Schools Week, the Sock
Hop brings out the poodle skirts and hair grease for student and parent
alike.
- School Carnival: Near the end of the year, Home and School hosts a carnival
with games and prizes for the whole family. Parents and students work and
play at the event, which is a key fundraiser.
