Volunteer
Volunteering is the lifeblood of the Saunders Catholic Schools tradition. For generations, parents, grandparents, alumni, parishioners, and friends have helped shape our schools through their gift of time and talent. While our faculty and staff provide exceptional education each day, the spirit, energy, and community created by volunteers simply cannot be replaced by paid staff.
Whether you are helping at a school event, working concessions, selling gate tickets, supporting GALA, coaching, or assisting behind the scenes, your service strengthens our mission and leaves a lasting impact on our students.
To protect our students, we comply with the Lincoln Diocesan Safe Environment guidelines, and some volunteer roles require a background check. This generally applies to positions involving direct interaction with students, supervision of students, or situations where a volunteer may be alone with students. Background checks are not typically required for event-based roles such as gate ticketing, concessions, GALA support, setup/cleanup, and many other behind-the-scenes opportunities.
Thank you for helping us continue the mission of Catholic education through your time, talent, and faithful service. Our schools are stronger because of volunteers like you.
