Volunteer - Woodlawn School Skip to content VOLUNTEER COME SEE THE DIFFERENCE YOUR TIME MAKES A DIFFERENCE VOLUNTEER WITH WOODLAWN Woodlawn is a family school. For 20 years, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, alumni and friends of the school have partnered with us to build everything from playgrounds to disc golf courses to outdoor classrooms and more. Volunteers support school programs in and out of the classroom by sharing their talents with our students. Volunteers are the leading fundraisers for the school, leading the Gala, the ‘BlazerFund, and the capital campaigns that built our campus. Volunteers lead our school – every member of our board is a volunteer – and volunteering brings us closer together, building community and making Woodlawn great. 7 WAYS TO HELP 7 WAYS TO VOLUNTEER ONE JOIN OUR PARENT COMMUNITY Our Parent Community is a volunteer organization that is free and open to all Woodlawn parents, guardians, and grandparents who are looking to connect and contribute their time and energy to enhancing the Woodlawn experience.
