Parent Volunteering at Woods

Parent Contract/Volunteer Activities

Education is a partnership between student, parent, school, and community. The partnership between parent and school at Woods Learning Center is unique and is an essential component of the learning experience at the school. Your support is necessary to ensure that your child receives the quality of education to which he or she is entitled. Compliance is also necessary to ensure that the staff is able to provide that same quality education to each student at Woods Learning Center.

Recording Your Time

Please remember to record your volunteer time. The volunteer hour log is at the front desk next to the visitor sign-in sheet. There are instructions on the front of the log book on how to record your time.

Volunteer Opportunities

Opportunities both inside and outside school will enable inclusion of parents with a variety of schedules. Check Volunteer Opportunities for specific tasks that are routinely needed in the school. Check Volunteer Ideas for some general ideas for helping around the school. The newsletters also will have specific requests for help needed for upcoming events. And you can always check with the teachers or staff when you’re in the school.
