Final Week to Complete the Vernfield Volunteer Survey
This survey will match you with volunteer opportunities at Vernfield during the 2022/23 school year, based on your interest and availability. Please complete this survey by October 1st, so that we may assign volunteers as soon as possible.
**Please note that the survey was recently updated to include Homeroom Parent and Homeroom Coordinator as options for volunteering. If you are interested in being a volunteer or coordinator for the socials, please fill out the survey again and just check the additional option.
If you are new to volunteering this year, please see the volunteer requirements on the district website to ensure you have the appropriate documentation completed.
