Volunteering

We welcome parent volunteers in a variety of capacities.

Anyone who volunteers in the classroom should have their background clearances completed and submitted to Sam Schwarze.

There is no set amount of volunteer hours, but we welcome you to choose ways to serve that fits your strengths and season of life. 

Examples of possible volunteer opportunities include: 

Pizza Day volunteer

Help with Thanksgiving and Spring Celebrations 

Fundraisers

Enrichment classes - teachers/skill share, and chaperones/helpers

All volunteers who regularly interact with children ARE required to submit background checks to PHA. These clearances include:

• Criminal history report from the Pennsylvania State Police;

• Child Abuse History Clearance from the Department of Human Services;

• A fingerprint based federal criminal history (FBI) submitted through the Pennsylvania State Police. 

• Volunteers are not required to obtain the FBI certification IF they have been a continuous resident of Pennsylvania for the past 10 years, but must swear or affirm in writing that they are not disqualified from service based upon a conviction of an offense.

If you have ideas for ways you’d like to help you can contact Becky Richendollar, head of the POP at thepto@providencehybridacademy.org or Program Coordinator Bethany Vitaro, bvitaro@providencehybridacademy.org .
