Volunteering at Hope Academy (4 of 7)
Why would you like to volunteer at Hope Academy?
*
Punctuality --- One way to be a supportive volunteer at Hope Academy is to show up at the agreed upon time (or even a few minutes early). It can add challenges to the plates of staff if a volunteer is running late or does not show up. Of course, things come up that are out of anyone's control, and there is grace for that! Please agree you will do your best to arrive timely for your volunteer commitments.
*
I agree.
Flexibility --- In a school setting, there are always moving parts. On any given day, there are sick teachers, student absences, and last-minute changes to classroom schedules. As a volunteer at Hope Academy, we ask that you are flexible and willing to help where needed as we adapt to given circumstances. Please agree you will do your best to be flexible and patient during your volunteer time.

I agree.
