TOP PAY!
Your volunteer time is calculated as a benefit to students, the school, and the district at a rate of $19.13 per hour. Last year volunteers logged in over 11,000 hours for a benefit of over $200,000. |
GREAT BENEFITS!
That great feeling you get by knowing you are helping make even a small difference in the life of a child. |
FLEXIBLE HOURS!
Volunteering can be anytime, 24 hour a day, 7 days a week. If your schedule does not permit you to volunteer during the day, we have many take home projects you can do at home. All hours count whether you are at the school, on a field trip, or doing a cut and paste project at home. Many of last years 11,000 hours were by parents giving only a few hours here and there. |

Media Center Aid
Our media center is in need of your help. Even if it's only one hour per week, you can help us provide a stronger library program for our students. You will learn how to check out/in books, reshelf books, and help students with research. Volunteering in the media center will also help you to learn more about your child's school experience. |

At Home Volunteering
Most volunteering opportunities happen at school during school hours. Sometimes opportunities may occur for "at home." Volunteer projects such as classroom newsletters, phone recruiting, and teacher craft projects are available. Those who do any work from home should be registered volunteers and keep a log with the hours of service. |

Mentoring
Mentors work with struggling students. They serve as role models, and are listening friends and companions. Mentors provide encouragement to a student needing to build self-esteem. Mentors usually work one on one with a student. |
