Volunteer Information
Parental involvement at Colorado Springs Charter Academy is highly valued and expected. We believe that active participation from parents/legal guardians is essential in creating a thriving school community. By volunteering, families not only contribute to their child's education but also gain firsthand experience of our school's philosophy in action.
Requirements:
-
Two parent family: 40 hours per year (both parents in the same household).
-
Deployed parents: Single parent family requirements apply when a parent is deployed for military service.
-
Joint parenting family: 20 hours per parent (total of 40 hours per year) when parents share responsibility but live in separate households.
-
Single parent family: 15 hours per year when one parent is solely responsible for the child's care.
-
You do not need a teaching certificate to volunteer
-
At CSCA, all members of the child's extended family are welcome to volunteer and must log their hours on the CSCA website. Failure to complete volunteer hours may result in the loss of sibling priority privileges. Families with circumstances preventing them from volunteering should make alternative arrangements with the Head of School.
-
Reliability is expected, and if absent, notification should be given to the school in advance. During volunteering, follow the teacher's instructions, avoid discussing classroom suggestions, and dress appropriately as a role model. Young children should not be brought to the school while volunteering due to the unavailability of daycare. It is important to maintain confidentiality and not share information or impressions about students.
