Volunteer Option for Grades 6-12

The volunteer program for 6th-8th graders combines your child’s favorite summer activities with an introductory service learning component that focuses on teamwork, leadership, and community service within the Early Childhood Building (ages 3 - 1st grade). Choose the weeks with themes/program partners that are the most interesting to you. All volunteers will be issued a letter detailing their experience hours by the end of September. Participants are REQUIRED to complete a Babysitter’s Training program in order to volunteer in this program. 

The volunteer program for students entering 9th-12th grades, involves working with 2nd-5th graders (might work with younger kids if the need arises). High School age volunteers will learn responsibility while participating in service learning activities focusing on character building, responsibility, and leadership. Under the teacher’s supervision, volunteers will assist with children age 3 through entering 5th grades, help teachers with activity set-up and breakdown, be role models for the younger children, and engage/participate as needed. Lessons learned as a volunteer at Summer smARTS at Harford Day are valuable tools for future academic, personal, and professional endeavors.
