The safety of the children is very important to us and we take these directives very seriously. Without all the above clearances and certificates on file, you will not be permitted to volunteer with children in our school or parish or accompany children on class trips. All the above takes time to complete and process, so we ask that you please do not wait until the last minute to begin the process. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Kristin Weiler, Safe Environment Coordinator, at
215-725-8588 or email safe@stceciliafc.com.
