Volunteering

Do you want to be a volunteer? Tell us your interests and talents by completing Bridger K-8 Volunteer Interest Form (doc) and return it to your student's teacher or drop it off at the main office.

IMPORTANT: If you'd like to work directly with students, you will need to fill out the Application To Volunteer form (consent to a check of criminal/civil records) and submit it to the school's office:

Volunteers play a vital role in the success of a school and the achievement of its students. Any amount of time that you can give is extremely helpful and appreciated!


Here are a few ideas on how you can volunteer:

In the classroom - assist individual students or small groups with reading, math, or science activities. Help students with classroom projects.

At home - Plan events, design flyers, sort handouts, prep teacher materials.

In the library - Shelve and repair books, assist students in selecting books to check out.

Classroom parent - Work with teacher to plan classroom activities and special events.

School wide events - Supervise the playground, chaperone field trips, prep special event materials, beautify bulletin boards.

Translating - Translate written materials into foreign languages.

Other skills needed - Do you have a skill you'd like to offer? Let us know!
