HGCS welcomes volunteers and parent involvement in our school. Please speak with your child’s teacher to coordinate your volunteer activities. You can also inquire with the school at info@hgcschool.org.
It is our intention to make volunteering for the school a positive experience that takes into consideration the busy lives we all lead. Please check with the front office for volunteer opportunities.
Volunteers who intend to offer their help at school on a regular basis during school hours must submit TB testing and results prior to the first day of volunteer work. Volunteers who will be supervising children without a staff member present will be required to be fingerprinted and background checked. Forms for the Live Scan can be picked up in the office.
All volunteers must sign in at the front desk upon arrival and must sign out as they leave. It is expected that all volunteers will work as assigned. Volunteers may request an assignment for certain tasks, but these requests may not necessarily be honored. It is not always in the best interest of a child to have a parent or other family member in their own child’s classroom. If a volunteer’s presence is disruptive in any way to the classroom or work environment of the school, the volunteer may be reassigned to work from home.
