Lexington Four Volunteer Program
Lexington Four offers a variety of opportunities for volunteer work throughout the school year. We appreciate community interest in sharing time and talents in our schools! Volunteers are a vital part of the educational system and make a difference for students.
Volunteer opportunities are divided into two levels.
A Level 1 Volunteer is an individual whose contact with students is supervised by school personnel at all times, typically in public settings and classrooms.
Examples include but are not limited to:
- Classroom tutor
- Test monitor
- Homeroom parent or class assistant
- Lunch buddy, playground, computer or media assistant
- Volunteer assistant in after-school programs
- School office volunteer
- Room Parent
A Level 2 Volunteer is an individual who works with students in settings that might not always be supervised by school personnel.
Level 2 volunteers will likely have direct and unsupervised interactions with students however, the district states that no volunteer should ever place themselves in a situation where they are alone with an individual student.
Examples include but are not limited to:
- On-site tutoring outside of the classroom
- Chaperones for school field trips, sporting events
- Athletic coaching assistants
- Mentors
Background checks are required for all volunteers prior to service at any of our schools. A National Sex Offender Registry Check as well as a criminal background screening is required.
Background checks are available at no cost to volunteers.
