Volunteer Hours Required of all K-8 families

Parent involvement is invited, encouraged and expected at LIS. Research has demonstrated that this is an important factor in student success and achievement and LIS is unable to fully function without the support of volunteers. Families agree to provide a minimum of 25 hours per family in the course of the school year or pay $20 per hour not served to the school at the end of the year. These hours can be fulfilled by other family members or friends over the age of 18 with a background check filed in the school office. Hours or payments must be settled with the school manager by May 15th in each school year. Volunteer fees can’t be paid by ESA funds or any financial aid programs.

There are many opportunities for involvement, including, but not limited to:

• lunchroom helpers

• classroom assistants

• Teacher projects (can be done at home sometimes)

• buildings and grounds beautification

• simple repairs

• painting

• special event helpers

• fundraiser support

• sporting event tasks

• concession stand workers

• library helpers

• office assistants

• Scrip card pick-up and management

• Other tasks approved by the office manager.
