Mother Seton Award Nomination
Each year Most Blessed Sacrament Catholic School seeks to recognize a deserving candidate from our school family to be the recipient of the Mother Seton Award at the annual diocesan luncheon. The Mother Seton Award was created to honor those individuals whose volunteer service and dedication to home, school, and church has been exemplary.
This individual should be recognized as an outstanding volunteer and cannot be a paid employee of the school. Strong Catholic values and a selfless dedication to our Catholic school should be manifest in the honoree chosen by our community. The honoree should have at least
three
years of involvement at Most Blessed Sacrament School, and must be an active member of the church parish.
With these criteria in mind, we ask that you prayerfully consider submitting a candidate for consideration. All nominations should be submitted in a sealed envelope at the school office or via e-mail to MBS Home and School (
mbshomeandschoolboard@gmail.com
) by Thursday, February 14th.

Office of Child Protection
|
|
According to the Safe Environment Policy mandated by the Diocese of Baton Rouge,
all school volunteers/school ministry volunteers/chaperones
must complete a mandatory background check and child protection training. Please note that MBS School child protection requirements are not the same as MBS Parish. Therefore if you are compliant for the Parish, you are not automatically compliant for the School, and vice versa. It is important to remember the paperwork is time sensitive. If you began the process and did not complete all the steps in a timely manner, you may have to resubmit the paperwork. Many files have been archived due to inactivity, and/or files not being updated. Call Mrs. Landry at 225-753-5526 or email
childprotection@mbsbr.org
for assistance.
