Volunteering

Greenwood School welcomes and needs parent and community volunteers. During the day, we need classroom assistants, small group leaders, one-on-one tutors, and playground supervisors. All school-day volunteers must undergo a Washington State Patrol criminal background check. There are many ways to help on your own time if you are not able to come to school during the day. If you are interested in volunteering, contact your child's teacher or leave a message in the Main Office, or call 206 252-1410 and leave a message.

Volunteer Expectations

  • Wear a nametag whenever you are at school.
  • Please do not share information about students you are assisting. Confidentiality is important!
  • The classroom teacher will guide your activities while volunteering. You are here to help them! Be sure the teacher knows what your talents and interests are and how you may be able to assist.
  • It is important to treat all students fairly. If you think it will be a problem for you to work with your own child, feel free to help in another classroom.
  • Be familiar with the Greenwood School Behavior Expectations and help all students remember how to be a positive part of our community.
  • Make a commitment to regular volunteering. Give the teacher the courtesy of a phone call in advance if you won't be able to make it at an expected time. Sign in and out and check for important notices in the Volunteer Room each time you come to school.
