Throughout the school year, there are many ways for parents to get involved and volunteer at school. From field trip chaperones to helping with the spring play to joining the hospitality committee, there are opportunities to help us out in a wide variety of ways. Our parent volunteers are a part of what makes VFKH a great place!
