Safeguard the Children (SGTC)

CHILDREN SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

In compliance with the Los Angeles Archdiocese and the Holy Family Catholic School Admission Requirements, the church and school require 100% compliance with the Safeguard the Children Program to help ensure the safety of our children for the good of the entire school community.  New or Returning Families:  All parents and any school volunteer (step-parent, legal guardian, grandparent, family member 18+, caregiver, etc.) must be in full compliance before the beginning of each school year before volunteering for or supervising children in any capacity at any school or church events/activities; driving students to a field trip, serving hot lunch, carpool duty, attending overnight trips, coaching, scouting, supervising students in the drama program, etc. or any parish program where an individual will be volunteering with or around children.

Requirements must be completed by each person, not per family.
