Student Volunteering
Before students begin volunteering, they need to view the Youth Partnership Program (YPP) training presentation. Print and complete the YPP Student Volunteer Post-Test. Bring the completed post-test to Ms. Coy in Guidance or email the completed test to glhousto@volusia.k12.fl.us.
The training must be completed before students begin recording volunteer hours.
Training must be completed before students begin recording volunteer hours.
Your hours will be recorded on the Youth Volunteer Hours Sheet. In addition to recording hours on an individualized sheet above, there is an informational form the sponsoring organization (non-SHS) must fill out. For each new organization a student volunteers, they should have the organization or business fill out the Youth Volunteer Information Form. It must be signed by the organization's contact person. They can be obtained in Guidance at any time.
Volunteer events will be posted on this webpage, displayed in guidance, and announcements will be made on our daily public address system.
VolunteerMatch is an effective way for to students to match with online volunteer activities. They will match students with people who are passionate about and committed to help.
