Volunteering

Welcome to our school community.  Thank you in advance for your willingness to share your time and talents with our students.  The support you provide will have a direct and positive influence on the quality of education for our students.

School volunteers are no longer only parents; they include business people, high school and college students, and senior citizens.

Volunteering Opportunities:

  • One to One Reading
  • Classroom helper (pasting, copying, cutting, etc.)
  • Hot lunch deliverer
  • Special events (Play days, school field trips, etc.)

Procedure:

First, phone the school office, or drop in to discuss the many opportunities to volunteer at our school.

All volunteers will be given a copy of the "Volunteer Code of Conduct".  Volunteers are asked to sign this document to declare that they have read and agreed to follow this Code of Conduct.

 

A Criminal Record Check is also required.  Copies are available at our office and are specific to our School District.   Once completed, we send off on your behalf.  Criminal Record checks can take up to 8 weeks to be mailed back to you.  Once you receive it back, you must bring it to our school wherein we send it to our Board Office to be entered into our database.  Criminal Record checks are valid for 4 years.

When volunteering in a classroom, an assignment will be made for you to help a teacher who has requested volunteer assistance.  At this point you and the teacher will collaboratively plan ways in which your skills can best be utilized.  If you are volunteering to participate in a specific program, please speak with the school principal.  A tour of the school and knowledge of school procedures will put you at ease.

 Volunteers are required to sign in at the main office.
