VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
West Portal families generously donate their time throughout the year to help make our community stronger and our events successful. Parent involvement provides positive reinforcement for children and shows how important it is to partner in a child’s education.
Our expectation is for parents to be actively involved in their child’s education. Our parent volunteers are vital in allowing such programs as our hot lunch program, class parties, field trips, and our after school sports program to exist. It is the policy of West Portal Lutheran Church and School that parents (or custodial adults) participate in the maintenance and upkeep of school facilities, in the Parent Teacher League (PTL) and in other nonacademic events which enhance the learning and
life of the children. This time is called Co-op hours and PPP hours. PPP and Co-op hours may not be carried over from year to year. PPP and Co-op hours are non-transferable from one family to another.
Our Parent Participation Program requires the following:
-
A family with one child enrolled in the school – 20 hours per year, which includes 2 Co-op hours
-
A family with two or more children in the school – 30 hours per year, which includes 2 hours of Co-op for each child enrolled
