Volunteering

The D’Evelyn Education Foundation is run by parent volunteers! Hundreds of volunteers are needed each year to host social events for our students, thank-you events for our teachers, and the fundraising events held by the foundation which are critical to supporting the needs of our students.

There are opportunities to fit every schedule and many interests. Please review the volunteer areas below and feel free to reach out with any questions. Do you have a new idea or an expertise that you can bring to the table? Please let us know!

Junior High Social Club
The Junior High Social Club was created to help build a sense of community amongst our Junior High Students. There are 4 primary socials for Junior High, as well as some after school get togethers. See the Junior High Social Committee page for more information. 

Bring food, help chaperone, coordinate activities, run game stations… most volunteer roles are one-time commitments, but if you’d like to help plan the social calendar, send us an email!

After Prom
After Prom is a big party designed to give our kids a safe place to continue Prom celebrations after the dance. It is full of fun activities like swimming, bounce houses, casino rooms, food and much more!

Décor and planning for the event start early in the spring, and day-of volunteers bring it all together in a matter of hours!

Volunteer opportunities include creating themed décor, ticket sales, decorating the venue, bringing food, manning activities, clean-up and more. Most roles are one-time commitments of just a few hours! The kids LOVE this event and we need many hands to pull it off!

School Store
The School Store is your one-stop shop for Jag spirit wear! Work as little as one shift per month, or a one-time, remote store event. This is a great way to get to know our amazing students!

The store is open Tuesday and Thursday each week from  11am-1:20pm  and at some school events such as football/basketball games, registration, and welcome night. ​

​Teacher Appreciation
We love our teachers! Help out with a Monthly Teachers’ Treat by bringing a goodie and wrapping it up with a thoughtful presentation. Ideas provided, but if you have a famous dessert or you love Pinterest, this one’s for you! 

​Parent Teacher Conference Dinner for Teachers
Our teachers are busy on conference days!! Help them by bringing food items, setting up or cleaning up. A one-time commitment.

Or, help out with Teacher Appreciation Week – a week-long series of amazing food and gifts coordinated just for our faculty and staff. This event is held the first week of May. Bring goodies, package surprise gifts, order catering, and more. One-time commitment.

Annual Dinner Auction
The Annual Dinner Auction is the foundation’s largest fundraiser and is a great way to socialize with fellow parents, teachers, and staff.  This event’s success is because of the incredible volunteers who put it together. This event is critical to raising funds for the year!
​
We are hoping to make this year's auction all new! We need new ideas, new creativity and lots of hands! We've moved the event to the spring: likely the last Friday of Feb. or first week of March. ​
