Thank you for your interest in volunteering within the Howard County School System! We value our volunteers and the contributions they make to our students and schools.
According to HCPSS Board Policy, all parent volunteers must complete a Confidentiality Training Course about protecting the privacy of our students, staff, and schools.

- Following a schedule for the day, that could include playing at recess, eating lunch with students, assisting with lunch, assisting in a classroom, helping to monitor hallway transitions, etc.
