Looking for Classroom Volunteers (ages 15 – 17)
January 17, 2022 by Rachel Olson
Our Classroom Volunteers are middle and high school aged young adults ages 15-17 who volunteer as a part of our Umbrella February Vacation Week Program. In this role volunteers develop a sense of responsibility through observation, participation, planning and implementation. Classroom Volunteers have the opportunity to be a great help to the Lead Teachers, Assistant Teachers and the Students.

The Umbrella’s Expectations for Classroom Volunteers:

- Be a positive role model.
- Engage with the children in a fun and positive way.
- Work with the teachers in a helpful, constructive way.
- Do your part in the cleanup process, if everybody helps, it takes less time to accomplish all the tasks.

- Help to inspire!
- Follow and enforce all health & safety protocols.
