 We are looking for volunteers who can give 30-45 minutes a week to a classroom of K-12 students for approximately 5-7 visits. Each volunteer will decide the times & dates that work for them & will discuss scheduling changes with the teacher as needed. Teachers are generally flexible with their schedules but do require a commitment to completing the JA program in their classroom. All volunteers complete a quick 20-30 minute training with a JA Staff Member before going into the classroom. To sign up for a particular opportunity, email hamptonroadsinfo@ja.org or call 757-455-9500--ask for a Program Manager.**Remember that the most popular schedule options are:
1. once a week for 5-7 weeks (only 5-7 visits total),
2. one day = JA Day,
3. once a day for a week (5 visits total unless specified otherwise).
You can fill out the Volunteer Registration Form--just make sure to indicate which school/teacher you would like to be paired with.
