School Volunteers
School volunteers are valuable members of the Green Woods Community, and our partners in education. By donating your time and talents, you help our students on their journey to become active young stewards of the natural world!
As a result of Pennsylvania laws, all volunteers must complete a volunteer application and submit up to date clearances. For the application and to submit your clearances please use this FORM.

*Please note, due to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, all volunteers must adhere to GWCS health and safety protocols when volunteering.
