Student Volunteers Welcome!
We encourage students in grades 9–12 to become volunteers! Volunteering means helping your school, a neighbor, or getting involved in the community without getting paid or receiving classroom credit. There are many opportunities available for you to put your time, skills and talent to good use. Volunteer hours can also be beneficial when you apply for college and/or scholarships. If you are someone who volunteers regularly and are interested in having those volunteer hours recorded on your report card and transcript, keep reading to learn more about the process.
Contact the volunteer coordinator in your building for more information.
