Family volunteering at Avail Academy has been part of the Avail tradition since 1961. Parent involvement is central to ensuring that Avail operates effectively and faithfully and continues to provide an educational experience that develops our children as disciples of Christ. Volunteering is also an enriching opportunity to be involved in the daily school life of your child and their classmates. We ask each family to consider how they can be involved with one or more of the programs that serve Avail Academy.
Volunteer roles are available to fit a wide range of gifts, interests, and time. For example, participation on various planning committees offers the opportunity to serve Avail Academy as an organization, while roles like Room Parent serve your child’s class directly. There are opportunities to serve during the school day, such as Recess Monitor, as well as off school hours, including athletics and fine arts events. Some needs are recurring, such as hot lunch server, while there are many one-time opportunities including judging at a variety of school fairs.
Avail Academy relies on over 4000 hours from our parents on all campuses each year to provide for the many programs and resources for Avail Academy students. We pray that as you become involved with your child’s school, you experience the rich blessings of building community with fellow parents and connect with the mission of Avail Academy in a tangible way.
