Volunteering at Thomas Mifflin School
Parent/Guardian and community member volunteers are welcome at Thomas Mifflin Elementary School. Volunteers may be needed to assist the teacher in many different ways, including working with children or providing help with preparation of learning materials. Parents/Guardians or community members wishing to volunteer in a classroom should talk with the principal to determine a mutually convenient time and discuss what the volunteer will do in the classroom, lunchroom, or halls. If it is necessary to cancel a scheduled volunteer visit, this should be done by the beginning of the school day. It is important to remember that all adults serve as role models for our students. Therefore, appropriate dress and speech will be expected of all volunteers when working at the school. In the interest of safety and security, volunteers will be permitted in the classroom only when the classroom teacher is present. All volunteers must sign in at the main office before going to the classroom.
Pennsylvania state law requires school volunteers to complete state criminal background check and child abuse forms. The forms and instructions on how to complete them can be found at: Criminal Reference Check and PA Child Abuse History Clearance.
