Help at School Events
In order to keep tuition costs lower, we require the parents to serve 25 hours of volunteer time over the course of the school year. There are many different events for parents to earn their volunteer time. Look over the list below. If you have a specific job in mind, please contact the school office at 801-486-0741.
Annual Auction/Benefit
This is our biggest fund-raiser of the year. Parent volunteers solicit and gather all of the auction items, both silent and live; arrange for the dinner and the entertainment; serve the dinner; decorate the gym, etc. Everyone who attends has a great time. Come be part of the planning of this important event.
St. Patrick's Parade Float
A Salt Lake tradition is the St. Patrick's Day parade. This event is always on the Saturday near March 17. KSA participates by marching in the parade or decorating a float. If you would like to head up this fun activity, or participate in the planning, call the school office.
Halloween Party
A lot of work goes into the planning of this fun event. You can volunteer to help beforehand, or to work the day of the party. This party is held on the Friday before Halloween. Students and even a few of the parents dress in costume. A fun time is had by the young and the young at heart!
Cultural Fair
Kearns-Saint Ann School is one of the most diverse schools in Utah. We have representation from 5 of the seven continents as students (no penguins). This day is in conjunction with the "Country Fair" put on by our middle school students.
If you would like to help in the planning or participate in sharing your culture, please call or contact the school office.

Field Days
These are held the last few days of school, with preschool, prekindergarten, kindergarten and 8th grade field days held earlier than grades 1-7. Parent volunteers organize each day by having a variety of "stations", or activities, for the students outside in the morning. Parents are needed to chaperone each class and supervise the stations. The HSA officers are the chairs for Field Day for grades 1-7, with the class representatives chairing the preschool, prekindergarten, kindergarten and 8th grade field days. WE NEED LOTS OF HELP!
First Holy Communion Breakfast
A breakfast is served to the First Holy Communicants and their families following the ceremony on a Sunday morning in late April or early May. The chair for this event is the 1st grade class representative. Parents of the 1st graders plan, decorate the tables and serve the breakfast.
Confirmation Reception
This is held the evening the 8th graders are confirmed, usually in March or April. The chair for this event is the 6th grade class representative. A reception is held in the gym, with the 6th grade parents decorating and staffing the event.
Graduation
The 8th grade graduation is held at the end of May each year. This special event is held at a very special Mass in Saint Ann Church. The 7th grade class representative is responsible for the reception that follows the graduation ceremony. Parents of the 7th graders arrange for the food, set up, decorate and staff the event.
