Volunteers |
| Starkey Elementary has offered a well-rounded academic foundation for students for almost half-a-century. Believing that every child can learn, we are always looking for volunteers since some students need a little extra time and attention to be successful. No special experience is required -- only patience, flexibility, commitment, and a fondness for children. We especially welcome... |
Volunteer Tutors |
| A tutor may work with individual or small groups of students who need to reinforce basic skills in a subject. These volunteers work under the direction of a teacher. Training is available, but not required. |
Mentors |
| A mentor works with a struggling or discouraged student to motivate that child to stay focused on school. A mentor is basically a friend and a role model. Mentors are required to attend a two hour workshop. |
Classroom Assistants |
| Classroom assistants work closely with classroom teachers by assisting them in preparing instructional material and interacting with students. |
Library Assistants |
Library assistants will work under the direction of our librarian. They may work at the circulation desk, and/or assist in book preparation and repair. Other duties may included preparing overdue notices, and assist with other clerical, artistic, and technical duties.
Volunteers are also needed for special events including but not limited to: Book Fairs; RIF; Battle of the Books...
