Volunteers must:

Be trained by the leader of the respective area before beginning any duties.

Treat students with respect and model Christ-like behavior with the students, at all times.

Keep confidential any sensitive information concerning a student and/or his or her family. When necessary, the volunteer should share confidential information with the teacher or supervisor when in the best interest of the student.

Contact a staff member for assistance when needing to administer any medication to student.

Refer discipline issues to the teacher or supervisor of the classroom or activity.

Make themselves familiar with fire and emergency exit routes posted in all school classrooms and other areas.

Be in an open area or a room with the door open when working with students one-on-one.
