Volunteering at Viewlands
There are numerous ways for people to be involved in Viewlands. Whether it be donating your time as a volunteer, supporting our growing community by attending school events, or being a present and active member in the Viewlands Elementary Parent-Teacher-Student Association (VEPTSA) viewlandsptsa@gmail.com
Parents may volunteer in classrooms, in the library, in our cafeteria with lunch serving or in the office. Carkeek Park Educational Center has training for parents to become docents of this amazing park furthering the partnership between the park and Viewlands Elementary School. We are so appreciative of our volunteers!
All volunteers do need to complete a short application process. Get started by going to this website https://www.seattleschools.org/families_communities/volunteer and finding both the Volunteer Application and Chaperone Application in the right hand column. Here you will also find a link to the short, required, one-time-only safe boundaries training video. We also require a copy of your driver's license to be submitted in the office.
Viewlands PTSA (VEPTSA) has been busy planning extracurricular activities and community building events. To learn how you can join, or for more information on their sponsored events, please visit their website.
We are excited about building sustainable relationships with various community organizations like Carkeek Park, the Windermere Foundation, SDOT and City of Seattle Preschool to further benefit the academic learning of our students. If you would like to find out how you can join Viewlands as a community partner call 206-252-4400 or send our secretary Signe Roscoe an email (saroscoe@seattleschools.org).
