Classroom Volunteers
Please remember that, in order to volunteer in any WCPSS school, you must be approved by the volunteer system. You must come into any WCPSS school and register on a computer. The process takes only a few minutes and then approximately 4 weeks to gain approval to volunteer. You can check on the progress of your application after 3-4 weeks by calling 919.562.6000 (HES front office).
Here are descriptions of the types of volunteering you may see on the sign up page.
Clerical- You will be asked to make copies, laminate and or file papers for our class.
AR Support- Students participate in an online reading program called Accelerated Reader. You will be helping students read and discuss a book on their level then helping them to sign in to take an independent online quiz about that book.
Math Workshop Help- During the "workshop" part of our math time, I will be assisting small groups of students in individualized practice while the remainder of the class works on assigned tasks. Your role will be to rotate and check on the progress of children who may have questions as well as to make sure everyone is working effectively.
Book Club Leader- You will be leading a small group of students through a book which may last over a few weeks. It is helpful if you also read the book and are ready to join in the discussion with the students.
KITS Leader- KITS (or Kids Into Thinking) is a great program which allows students to enrich their base curriculum. You will meet with a small group of students and help to facilitate instruction as they complete “adventures” in math and/or science. See a link to a training power point at the bottom of this page.
Change of Schedule...
Please know that you are a valuable part of our classroom and that we appreciate your generous gift of time and talents shared. If you are unable to volunteer at your time, please just send an email and let me know.
A Word on Confidentiality...
I respectfully request that all volunteers maintain the confidentiality of our students. Please do not discuss any student's ability, behavior or spoken comments with other parents. If you have concerns after working with a child, please speak confidentially with me.
Thank you for your interest in volunteering in our classroom! I look forward to a great year together!
