Volunteer Expectations You may volunteer in the classroom or at home attached is a sign up sheet for the month of September

and October. If you cant volunteer in the classroom but would like to help out at home please let me know and something can be arranged. There is plenty to do in our classroom!!! When you come into the classroom there are some expectations I would like you to follow. Please read carefully and sign and return. Thank you! Be prompt and dependable. If possible, please call at least one day in advance to let me know you will not be there at your scheduled time. Sign in and out upon arrival and departure. Greet me to let me know you have arrived. Wear your nametag for identification. Bring a smile and your willingness to work. Be honest in your approach and attitude. Be patient when working with children. They may be having difficulties of which you are not aware. Your patience will work wonders. Be flexible in responding to the needs of children and staff. Be confidential. A childs work and behavior in school is to be held in confidence. Discuss problems with the teacher, not with other volunteers, parents, or in the community. Be a positive role model for children in attitude, behavior, language, and dress. Let your conversations demonstrate respect for others, and avoid language that may be perceived as discriminatory, sexist, or offensive. Notify me if a child confides about an abusive situation. I will do the necessary follow-up. Name____________________ Signature_________________
