Volunteers – Make a Difference
 
 
       

 

"I have grown as a person interacting and learning with the students.
The families and staff at Academy Prep dedicate so much of their time
and effort to the children. The experience is unforgettable".

Give Back to Receive

Academy Prep prides itself on the volunteer efforts of the community. We could not sustain our programs without volunteers. Annually, we average 8,000 hours from parents, corporations, non-profits, our trustees, community members, high school students, and graduates. If you would like to make a difference, here are some opportunities to explore.

Study Hall: Do you have experience tutoring or special patience to work with students on homework needs? The perfect fit for you may be in study hall. Monday through Thursday; 5:00-6:05 pm is dedicated to students who need extra help in Mathematics, English, History, and Science.
Qualifications: Can commit one hour a week, must be 16 years of age or accompanied by an adult.

Extracurricular Activities: Share your talent with students in karate, chess, dance, music, art, golf, or intramurals. We work with many community partnerships that teach life skills such as Boy Scouts, Fit Families for Life, The Lightning Foundation, First Tee, Enterprise Village, Girl Scouts, Ogden and Sullivan Law Firm, St. Joe's Children's Hospital, Junior League of Tampa, and Prodigy Arts. Or perhaps you can work with us to design an extracurricular activity!
Qualifications: Once a week; experience in instruction, business or classroom management.

Field Trips: Our students attend field trips once a month by grade. This is a great opportunity to be a chaperone; not only with our students and families but also our community partners. On occasion we have weekly field trips to community programs like The Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center and The Florida Holocaust Museum.
Qualifications: One Saturday a month (for regularly - scheduled trips); must be 16 years of age or accompanied by an adult.

Special Events: If you have special skills or like to coordinate, one of our many events throughout the year may be the opportunity for you. We have school picnics, plays, and celebrations. Our development team also manages fundraising activities like golf tournaments and seeks administrative support.
Qualifications: Specific positions may require experience.

Other Volunteer Opportunities: library support, classroom tutor, and lunch supervision.
