WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Parent volunteers are the heart of our school and we hope to have many more volunteer opportunities on campus this year! The safety of our students, faculty, and staff are of the utmost importance at Great Hearts. This is why we have partnered with Raptor Technologies to screen our volunteers and guests on campus. All volunteers must complete an application EACH SCHOOL YEAR to be approved to volunteer on campus. Even if you applied last year, you need to reapply for the 2021-2022 school year! Apply Now for the 2021-2022 school year!
