Volunteer Expectations:
As a volunteer for the WDPSD, you are a valuable asset in the safety, education, and enrichment of our students. Your role, when volunteering, is to support the teacher and the students. Please follow the teacher’s direction, maintain attention towards the task at hand, support students doing the work themselves, and use encouragement and a positive attitude to contribute to a healthy learning environment.
Any discipline issues should be brought to the attention of the teacher. Remember, do not discuss any information you learn about an individual student’s academic or social behavior outside of the classroom. Confidentiality helps maintain a culture of trust and learning in the classroom. Please sign in and out at the front office before volunteering to get a guest pass.
Thank you again for your support!
