Volunteer Opportunities

Parent/guardian participation is essential to the success of Redding School of the Arts because children learn more when their parent/guardian is involved in their education. Volunteering is not a requirement for acceptance to, or continued enrollment at Redding School of the Arts. Parents/guardians are encouraged to support the work of the school by volunteering 40 hours per household per year.

RSA collects volunteer data to report to the CA State Dept. of Education and our Authorizer regarding parent participation and involvement per the charter, LCAP and Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). Families are encouraged to record their volunteer hours using a program called “Track it Forward.” RSA families log into: http://www.trackitforward.com to log their hours. Hours are calculated by Household; volunteer hours can be accumulated by adult family members or their designee. The suggested timeline for submitting of volunteer logs is 20 hours by winter break, 30 hours by March 1st, and 40 hours by May 30th. Thank you for taking the time to record your volunteer contributions.

Ways to Volunteer

There are many different ways in which volunteer hours can be completed including on site and from home. Some suggestions include:

Contact your student’s teacher to inquire about volunteer opportunities in the classroom.
Join a committee such as Theater Booster Club or Parent Teacher Committee (these committees may be able to provide some volunteer activities from home). Links to these committees can be found here.
Email the school secretary [email protected] regarding your availability to volunteer on site. Regular opportunities arise throughout the year that require parent volunteers such as picture day and hearing/vision screening.
Watch for email and ParentSquare news blasts requesting donations for snack cart, fundraiser meals, or other social events. Thirty homemade items earn one hour and thirty store purchased items earn half hour.
Email the school’s Library Information Specialist to inquire about volunteer opportunities in the library at [email protected].

We need parent helpers to work the snack cart during lunch and recess. Snack donations count toward your volunteer hours!
