Below you will find volunteer opportunities for our school events. All the school events have a different commitment level, but you don't have to be available for the entire time. Whatever time you can give is very much appreciated. Keep a look out for a "Sign Up Genius" link to appear on our website to volunteer. Also, in order to volunteer at the school you must have a volunteer affidavit filled out and approved. If you would like additional information please contact us.
