Volunteering as a Curriculum Partner allows parents, grandparents, and friends in the community to share their professional expertise and knowledge with our students throughout the year. Volunteers may lead a lecture, share a video, offer a field trip to their workplace, or guide students through a hands-on learning activity. Teachers will determine the best way to utilize our volunteers to enhance the curriculum, create unique classroom opportunities, provide real world experiences for our students, and help us develop great learners. Please complete the online form to participate.
