Volunteers

At Countryside Montessori School, we rely on our dedicated volunteers to help deliver an outstanding educational experience to our students. If you’re on the fence about getting involved, consider the following benefits:

• Strengthen Your Bond with Your Child: Volunteering at our Montessori school allows you and your child to spend more time together; it also shows your child that you are invested in their education and well-being. This can help keep your relationship strong as your child continues to grow and develop. 
• Gain Insight into Your Child's Education: By being present in the classroom and around your child’s class, you gain a firsthand understanding of the curriculum, our teaching methods, and your child’s classmates and daily routines. This insight can help you remain engaged and support your child's learning at home more effectively.
• Be a Positive Role Model: When your child sees you volunteering at their school, they learn the importance of giving back to the community. You become a positive role model, helping to instill values such as empathy, responsibility, and community involvement.
• Improve Communication with Teachers: Volunteering provides opportunities to interact with your child’s teachers and our staff, fostering a stronger partnership and allowing you to interact more constructively. 
• Boost Your Child’s Self-Esteem: Children with engaged parents tend to have better self-esteem, especially during the early childhood years. Seeing you actively involved in this area of their life can boost your child's sense of confidence. It sends a clear message that they are important and valued.
• Network with Other Parents: Volunteering allows you to meet and connect with other parents in your child’s class, building a supportive community. These connections can be beneficial for both you and your child, providing a network of friends and resources. In today’s digital age, it can be easy to feel disconnected from our communities; however, building relationships with other parents can help cultivate that sense of connection. 
• Contribute to School Improvement: Your time and skills can make a significant difference in our school's operations and programs. Whether it's helping with events, fundraising, or participating in classroom activities, your contributions can benefit each child’s experience.
• Personal Growth: Volunteering can be personally fulfilling and provide a sense of purpose in your day-to-day life. It offers opportunities to learn new skills, gain experience, remain engaged with the community, and feel a sense of accomplishment from making a positive impact.
