Volunteering
We appreciate your interest in serving as a volunteer for our school! The involvement of parents, volunteers and others in the community who serve as a resource to schools is fundamentally important to the success of school programs.
Why volunteer at a school?
School volunteers provide invaluable support in two primary ways - as individuals and through organizations.
Where can a volunteer assist?
Most volunteers give their time:
- Working with students in the classroom.
- Offering curriculum enrichment to students.
- Participating in school organizations such as PTO or Athletic Booster Clubs.
- Providing counsel to the school district as members of advisory committees.
- Improving school grounds and buildings.
What are the school goals for volunteers?
The school supports volunteer efforts to:
- Increase children's motivation for learning.
- Enrich children's school experiences.
- Strengthen school-community relations.
- Build understanding of schools among citizens.
How to volunteer?
We work with volunteers in two capacities: a once-in-a-while volunteer and what we call a "designated volunteer". Designated Volunteers help out at the school regularly and have completed a formal background check process. Once-in-a-while volunteers work with classroom teachers about volunteering for special events. If you are interested in once-in-a-while volunteering, contact your child's teacher via phone or email to talk about opportunities. If you are interested in becoming a "designated volunteer" contact the school office and complete the Volunteer Assurance Form, below.
