Volunteers by the Thousands:
Each year, background-checked volunteers log
hundreds of thousands of hours and donations.
These community members are taking care of support
tasks so teachers can focus on teaching, organizing
booster clubs so student activities can run smoothly,
and showing our students that there is an entire
community cheering for their success.
*The equivalent of approximately 195 full-time staff. According to Independent Sector, a non-pro�it group that calculates the value of volunteer time,
these volunteer hours contributed $7.4 million of value to the school district
