Volunteer Opportunities

Wellington Christian School supports an aggressive, well-organized volunteer program under the direction of the Volunteer Coordinator. The Coordinator organizes the time and talents of all volunteers with the schools activities, events, and programs. By serving as a WCS volunteer, you will 1) keep tuition costs down; 2) give individualized attention to students; 3) serve teachers and staff; and 4) receive many untold rewards for your efforts.

Our volunteers are part of the WCS extended family. You are volunteering to assist the PTF, Fine Arts, Athletics, classroom field trips, office services, and the classroom teaching-learning experience. Volunteers are dependable family and community members who, in addition to providing a service to our teachers and students, are learning about our educational program. They are realizing the importance of education and how time-consuming teaching can be!

We wish each of our volunteers a successful, rewarding, and satisfying experience. Should you have any additional questions, wish to consult with the teacher to whom you are assigned, or need further information, please feel free to contact your Volunteer Coordinator.  

Volunteer Policy:
