Volunteer sign ups are open! 

 

We are off to the races for our 2022-2023 school year!  Our goal is to bring a full calendar to our student community, but we can not do that without the volunteer power to execute. Without sufficient volunteer support, our programs run the risk of being downsized or paused until a later date. 🤷🏻‍♀️  If we all give a little, we can accomplish A LOT! 

 

Click the underlined title to sign-up. We are updating these sign ups as the year draws near. Keep checking back!  

 

VERY IMPORTANT: ALL IN BUILDING VOLUNTEERS REQUIRE ANNUAL IN-PERSON AND ONLINE TRAINING REGARDLESS OF PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE OR APPROVAL. THIS IS A STATE REQUIREMENT, AND  ALLOWS FOR CONTINUED CULTIVATION OF OUR SEL (SOCIAL EMOTIONAL LEARNING) SCHOOL CULTURE.
