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.
Purpose of the AESD Volunteer Program
The purpose of the Anaheim Elementary School District volunteer program is to enhance educational and support services to our school community.
Volunteers contribute to schools and the district in the following ways:
- Enriching the school experience for students and staff
- Assisting with school and community activities
- Promoting partnerships between the school, District, community and home
- Serving as positive role models for students
- Facilitate District/School Site Parent Meetings/Workshops
In the Anaheim Elementary School District, we pride ourselves in providing an e²STEAM-D education for all our students. Volunteers support this goal by enhancing the experience of the child. There are various ways to volunteer, but all actions benefit the students’ academic and social and emotional growth.
