During the pandemic, we are temporarily putting volunteering and the processing of background check forms on hold because visitors and volunteers are not allowed in the school. We look forward to resuming our volunteer programs once it is safe to do so.
When we can once again safely engage the help of volunteers, we will welcome your participation in a number of roles such as field trip chaperones, lunch helpers, library helpers, book fair set-up/tear down, donating meals and snacks for teachers on special occasions, washing clothes and organizing our Used Uniform Sales, distributing School Tool Boxes, helping with Picture Day, and helping with Field Day. Yinghua asks each parent and guardian to donate 4 volunteer hours per year.
Contact the Volunteer Coordinator with questions and to learn more: yaca-volunteer@yinghuaacademy.org.
Volunteering is a great way for you to make a difference in your child’s school. Volunteering is a give-and-gain experience: Center for School Change: 50 Ways to Give, Gain from Volunteering with Schools.
During the pandemic, we are not processing new or renewed volunteer background check forms. However, our normal procedure is for volunteers to submit a background check every five years. YACA covers the $20 fee for this process for volunteers who are parents or legal guardians of currently-enrolled Yinghua students and others (such as grandparents) on a case-by-case basis.
