Volunteer Opportunities

Hot Lunch Volunteering

Please remember the following guidelines for hot lunch volunteering:

• Check in at the school office 5 minutes before your shift.
• Only the designated adult volunteer from the sign-up list will be allowed entry (please note that younger siblings cannot accompany you during this time.)
• Photography is prohibited within the school premises.
• Check in with the Lunch Solutions representative. Your responsibilities will include organizing and serving lunches. It's important to note that we are not responsible for supervising the lunchroom; the school will handle that.
• During your shift, please remain at the hot lunch service tables and refrain from joining students at their lunch tables. Once your shift concludes, promptly check out at the office and remember to take your ID.

You can find available shifts here.
