Volunteer
French International volunteers help us achieve things that wouldn't otherwise be possible. Get involved today!
Volunteer Requirement
Each French International family is required to volunteer 20 hours per year. Volunteer hours can be tracked through the Volunteer Log. Hours not completed will be charged at a rate of $25/hr at the end of each school year.
Volunteer support allows French International to keep administrative expenses low while maintaining the events and opportunities that make our school special. Events like Fête du Vin and the Annual Gala can not exist without the efforts of our volunteers.
Volunteering involves the entire family in a student's educational life. Service is a part of our IB educational philosophy as we teach students that we have a shared responsibility to our connected global community and that meaningful action can make a difference. Thank you for helping us model responsible, service-oriented behavior.
