School Volunteer
PURPOSE OF THE LHCSD SCHOOL VOLUNTEER PROGRAM
The purpose of the LHCSD School Volunteer Program is to enhance student achievement by engaging and leveraging the rich talents and expertise of our local school communities.
School volunteers:
- Reinforce classroom learning by assisting teachers in classrooms with non-instructional tasks
- Support school personnel in the effective operation of schools
- Promote positive partnerships between the home, schools and the community
- Serve as positive role models for students by helping students develop a more positive attitude about themselves, schools and communities
