Would you like to volunteer? Volunteers are needed at the Village in many different areas including classroom support, assisting children in the cafeteria, filing books in the Library, picture days and more.  If you are interested in volunteering, please follow these steps:

1. Contact your child’s teacher first and set up a day and time to start volunteering.

2. The very first time you come to volunteer, go to the Family Resource Center first in order to complete a background check and a 10 minute training on expectations and confidentiality. 

Call the Family Resource Center at 887-0567 with any questions.
