Volunteer
Early and consistent parental involvement helps children do well academically. Parents/guardians and extended family are encouraged and welcomed to become involved in the formal education of their children by volunteering at their child’s school site.
A volunteer is any individual who assists at a school site or District office/event without monetary compensation. This includes parents, community members, interns and in some cases, high school or college students.
Parents/guardians who are unable to volunteer at the school site during the day due to certain circumstances may apply to be an at-home or virtual volunteer, where they can participate in the virtual environment, or may support volunteer activities from their homes. A tiered system of health and safety requirements is provided below for virtual and on-campus volunteers.
