What to expect as a volunteer in the art room:
You will be asked to assist in distributing materials,
preparing materials and putting up bulletin boards. Please avoid bringing in
other children. This is a distraction for the students and to you as a
volunteer. On that same note, sometimes I will have two volunteers for one
class and often times this lends itself to having conversations when I really
need your help.
As a volunteer, you will be asked to have respect for each
child and keep your opinions and observations confidential. Please
know that you are valued as a volunteer. Often times I will do a certain
project because I know that I will have extra hands to
help me. Please call the school if you cannot make it in to help out.
Procedures for Volunteers
What you should do if you are scheduled to volunteer and you
know in advance that you can't make it:
Please find a replacement. You can look at the full calendar
for the month on the volunteer web site and
you should call or e mail another volunteer and ask them to
switch.
What you should do if it is the morning of the day you are
to volunteer and you can't make it:
Try to find your replacement or call the school and leave me a
message stating that you can't make it and couldn't
find a replacement. No phone call needed if you found someone
to come in for you.
