Current Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteer If You Can Help Out
AP Exam Parent/Guardian Volunteers Needed!
The BHS staff need extra volunteer support during AP Exams (May 6-10 and 13-17). This includes AP student exam check-in, room set up, and handing out exams. These essential tasks only take a small window of your day, but are so helpful for staff and students involved with the exam process.
Please review the available hour-long time slots and sign up to help out. Learn more and sign up today!
SPREE Chaperones Needed
Junior and Sophomore Parents & Guardians – We Need Your Help!
SPREE is an all-night party for our seniors hosted by the Ballard High School PTSA and chaperoned by PTSA volunteers.
Seniors will have a chance to celebrate with their classmates as they are taken to two secret locations on the night of graduation for games, dancing, food and all sorts of fun. This night is only possible with the help of volunteers — which is why we need you! We’re looking for 20 parent volunteers to staff the event, and since those seniors probably don’t want their own parents hanging around, we’re appealing to you to help make this BHS tradition happen.
Please join our list of SPREE chaperone heroes and help ensure a fun and safe evening for the Class of 2024 graduates! Thank you! PTSA SPREE Chairs: Shelby Reynolds; shelby@ShineEventDesign.com
and Darcy Greene; craigdarcy@comcast.net
