Volunteer

We are always looking for caring, motivated individuals to work with our students and in our schools. Volunteers are a wonderful supplement to the educational experience of students at Avondale Meadows Academy. With the support of volunteers, the opportunity to meet the individual needs of each student is greatly increased. Please take a moment to complete the inquiry below and let us know how you would like to help.

GET INVOLVED

There are many ways to get involved in the life of the Avondale Meadows Academy. We have listed several below and hope that you’ll get involved. Contact any member of our staff if you wish to sign up. Please understand, we are required to conduct a criminal background check for anyone working with children in our building, which includes AMA volunteers.

ReadUp

Be a ReadUp Tutor and work one-on-one with one of our 3rd or 4th graders. You’ll help students improve not only their reading skills but also their whole outlook on academics. Tutors/Mentors work with students 1hr. per week in one of the following time slots: Tuesdays 2:20pm – 3:20pm, Wednesdays 3:45pm – 4:45pm, or Thursdays 3:45pm – 4:45pm. Tutoring has started, but we are always looking for new tutors! Click here for more information on Readup.

Classroom Assistants and Reading Tutors

Students in every classroom in our building can benefit from some assistant and a little extra attention from someone interested in their progress. If you are interested in working in your child’s classroom or any other at AMA, please contact your child’s teacher directly. We only ask that classroom volunteers commit to a consistent schedule so that our teachers can know exactly when to expect them.

Hallway Dads

Volunteer any day of the week (for at least an hour), be a role model and help us build a culture of discipline and respect for all students. Teachers may rely on you for support in classrooms, on the playground, cafeteria, or in hallways. With some training and orientation, we’ll invite you to be part of a dynamic team of male mentors lending a patient ear and calm support to help the AMA Family.

Office and Administrative Help

The AMA staff meets the first Tuesday of every month. We are looking for a volunteer who can help us by answering phones and receiving visitors in our front office the first Tuesday of every month so that Mrs. Tay, our Front Office Administrator, can attend our meetings. Please contact Ms. Tay if you are interested in volunteering.
