Archdiocesan Music Program


The music program seeks to play an equal part with the rest of the educational process in the development of the students so that they will grow into mature, Christian adults. It is not a vocationally oriented program, although many of our students have gone on to become professional musicians and music educators. Our primary position is not that of a "feeder" program for the secondary schools. Rather, we try to impart to as many children as possible the unique experience which can be attained only through an instrumental program; to teach the techniques of performance and the fundamentals of music and music making. The program strives to serve the needs of the schools, the parents, and the students.

This program is a diocesan program. We are as concerned with the schools whose music programs are not successful as with those which are. Schools whose band enrollments have dropped to as low as 8 to 10 students were not abandoned because they were not carrying their own weight or because they were difficult to schedule. The program operates the same way in each school and is committed to making instrumental music available to every student in the Archdiocese.

Volunteering


Volunteering is a voluntary act of an individual or group freely giving time and labour for community service. Many volunteers are specifically trained in the areas they work, such as medicine, education, or emergency rescue. Others serve on an as-needed basis, such as in response to a natural disaster. 

Etymology and history
The verb was first recorded in 1755. It was derived from the noun volunteer, in c. 1600, "one who offers himself for military service," from the Middle French voluntaire. In the non-military sense, the word was first recorded during the 1630s. The word volunteering has more recent usage—still predominantly military—coinciding with the phrase community service. In a military context, a volunteer army is a military body whose soldiers chose to enter service, as opposed to having been conscripted. Such volunteers do not work "for free" and are given regular pay.

Volunteer Information

At St. Mary's, parents are welcome to volunteer for school events throughout the entire year as needed and requested. During school hours each individual teacher may also offer occasional volunteer opportunities. These opportunities may include chaperoning during field trips, setting up class parties, or helping in other tasks as requested by a teacher.  See all volunteer opportunities available to you (for current parents) here.

Parents wishing to volunteer must adhere to the Archdiocesan of Washington Child Protection Policy which requires volunteers to submit a ADW Volunteer Application, attend a Protecting God's Children training session and get fingerprinted at an authorized location.  You may contact the school's front office for more information or read the ADW Volunteer Virtus Checklist.

You may also visit the Archdiocese of Washington Child Protection section to sign up for a training session.

Please understand that in order to volunteer during school hours and to attend a school field trip parents must have met these requirements prior to the date of the event.
