Volunteer with Us
Volunteers in schools make a huge difference for our students and staff. By giving your time you can make an impact on how well a student connects with material, you can help them to navigate their school day, you can be a positive adult in the life of a child in need of As a caring adult in a space you create opportunities for teachers to be able to prep their next activity, to work more easily one on one with a student in need, to be able to have their breaks and you make the system work better.
