Communications Policy
The ordinary form by which you or your high school student will directly be contacted is by email and cell phone. Please make sure that all email/cell phone information is kept up to date with the Parish Office, as it is how you will be contacted about updates, emergencies/illnesses, cancellations, etc. Other forms of social media may also be used. Parents/guardians have the opportunity to access sites or be copied on all material sent to their children via text, email, or social media.
Safe Environment Training
According to Diocesan policy, all employees and volunteers who work with children/youth must receive safe environment training. In addition, this training is available to all parents who so desire. Likewise, all children/youth in our programs are required to be given age-appropriate safe environment training that is in accord with Catholic moral principles. The Diocese of Evansville provides such training through its Safe Environment Curriculum. Parents can review the content of this curriculum online at www.evdio.org and may choose to withhold their child from participation in any part of it.
