Volunteering looks like
Classroom volunteering (working with children, supporting staff, or helping with projects) and office help such as typing, filing, and projects, across HDESD's school and early childhood programs. Volunteers complete online training and a state-required background check paid for by the ESD, renew every school year, and are never left unsupervised with children.
