Volunteer & Partnership opportunities include:
- Individual Volunteers help enrich education programs by mentoring students or assisting with activities that enhance instruction and promote learning. They are unpaid individuals who donate time on an ongoing basis. See current opportunities
- Parents/Guardians/Family Members Looking to Volunteer at their child’s school should call the school’s Volunteer and Partner liaison for information about their volunteer program.
- Chaperones are parents or family members who only provide support for field trips at their child’s school but aren’t looking for longer-term volunteer opportunities.
- Visitors participate in school activities and events to support special events such as Career Day, Field Day, Read Across America, and African American Read-In.
- Community Partners such as businesses, non-profits, and government organizations support APS students, teachers, and/or administrators on projects that advance student learning, development and growth through services, resources and programs. Learn more
- Work-Based Learning Partners provide opportunities that help students make connections between their academic courses, careers interests, and workplace skills. Guest speaking, virtual or in-person tours, hosting students for job shadowing and/or providing internship opportunities are all ways partners can engage to support student learning. Learn More
