We would like to see at least one volunteer in each classroom every day. You can volunteer as many times as you wish and for as much time as you can give. (Even 10 minutes can make a difference).
As a volunteer, you contribute to the program and show your children that you actively care about them and their education. You also gain life experience which can be included on a resume when applying for a job or count as credit when pursuing a college degree. Parents who actively volunteer thorough the year, are given first preference when substitutes positions become available in the center.
All Parents who would like to volunteer in the classroom and on trips must get a physical and a TB test and complete a NYS Child Abuse Clearance form ( See family service staff for forms).
