Volunteers are always welcome at Emma E. Booker!  Our volunteer program is part of the District’s Volunteers Count Program.  Volunteers read one-on-one with individual students, work with small groups under the direction of a teacher, chaperone field trips, assist with library tasks, help teachers plan for special occasions and coordinate special activities.  All volunteers and mentors must complete an application and background screening each year.  Applications are completed in the school's main office on the Volunteers Count computer. All parents who plan to chaperone field trips must be approved volunteers.  Volunteers can work for as little as 30 minutes per week.  We encourage you to join us and help make a difference.

Before you can volunteer, make sure you follow all district guidelines. You can find all that information here. 

After graduation from Children First, students and families may be eligible for continued support through Children First’s RISE program. Students in kindergarten through fifth grade who are enrolled in the RISE program at Emma E. Booker receive weekly, one-on-one literacy support with a volunteer mentor during the school day. Families also receive family advocacy services to support their child’s education.
