Volunteer Opportunities

WJHS Parents - If you are interested in helping at WJHS during the 2021-2022 school year, please sign up here!  At this time, the PTO is working on determining where and when parents can help, and we will reach out to you as opportunities arise!  Thank you for your interest in volunteering at WJHS!

Cafeteria Duty

Parents!

Given the current pandemic, the cafeteria will not be operating at this time. Please check back for opportunities to volunteer when the school reopens and normal service resumes. Thank you for your understanding.

WJHS looks for volunteers throughout the year to ensure a smooth operation of the cafeteria.

This is a quick and easy way to be an involved parent at WJHS. Cafeteria volunteer shifts are just 90 minutes! Take advantage of this opportunity to help the school and sneak a peek at your child’s daily life.

Garden/Outdoor Classroom

WJHS Outdoor Classroom II
Help Keep the Garden Open for Our Students!

Under normal circumstances, volunteers are needed to oversee the outdoor classroom area. As a result of the current pandemic the outdoor classroom is currently closed. We will keep you updated when it reopens and hope you will consider volunteering your time then!

This is a very minor commitment for any parent, but would make a big difference to our student’s enjoyment of our outdoor space. For more information, please email: president@wjhspto.com

Volunteer for just 30 minutes and you will allow students to enjoy the quiet garden during recess to chat, explore or enjoy a bit of gardening. No green thumb required! Weather permitting, the garden is open Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday during Fall and Spring months.
