Each family is required to volunteer for a volunteer opportunity during the school year. There are jobs of all sizes, for people with all kinds of talents. Some take as little as an hour or two for the entire year!!! We are updated our volunteer process. This link will take you to our volunteer opportunity landing page. We are still adding items!

For example, HEAT Wave Sports requires each family to assist in some way (coaching, clean up, hauling equipment, etc.)
