Helias Catholic students who intend to participate in a MSHSAA-sanctioned sport or activity will be assessed a $275 participation fee for the school year. This fee helps with the ever increasing cost of running athletic and activities programs (transportation, tournament fees, officials, uniforms, equipment, etc.). MSHSAA-sanctioned activities include any MSHSAA sport, Academic Team, Band, Cheerleading, Choir, Dance, and Speech Team.

Helias Catholic offers three options to cover the activities participation fee:

1. Pay the full $275 participation fee.
2. Sell 6 NFL cards and pay a $150 fee.
3. Sell 15 NFL cards and pay nothing.

NFL cards will be available in the school office starting May 1st. The cards can also be picked up in the school office during summer office hours.

If you CANNOT sell the cards you have taken, please return the unsold cards to the school office by

July 22, 2026, so we can redistribute them. All unsold cards must be returned to the school office.

The deadline to return NFL stubs and money is Friday, August 17, 2026. Please turn all your ticket stubs and money together in an envelope labeled NFL raffle with the student’s name.

We appreciate your partnership in supporting the NFL cards program, as it is an important part of sustaining our athletic programs and MSHSAA -sanctioned activities. Please note that any cards taken and not returned or paid for will be charged to the family through FACTS. 

HOW TO SELL NFL CARDS:

Make checks payable to Helias Catholic High School and write “NFL” in the memo.

Tickets cost $25 each. Ticket holders are entered into the raffle for all 17 weeks of the NFL season plus three playoff weeks.

Each ticket holder will have a chance to win up to $400 each week of the NFL season. A check will be mailed directly to the winners, so it is not necessary to follow the NFL games each week to see if you are a winner.

The seller of the ticket also will receive half of the prize amount.

Please fill out BOTH sides of the ticket stub. The ticket stubs are used to notify and pay winners. If the cards are not filled out entirely the winner or the seller  WILL NOT receive their money.
