Parent/Guardian Volunteer Opportunities

Parent/Guardian volunteers play an important role in supporting Admissions activities. Volunteers help greet prospective families at Open Houses, assist as greeters and tour guides during Visit Days, and support welcome events for families considering their invitation to join the SAAS community.

Class Representatives help build our SAAS community by serving as liaisons between the grade-level parents, the Family Association, and the school. As Family Association ambassadors, they help to build a strong sense of community by promoting parent/guardian engagement in grade-level, division and school-wide events and activities. They act as a general knowledge resource for grade-level questions and recruit volunteers to lead various grade-level community building activities (coffees, parent socials, potlucks, etc.).  Check the school calendar for specific dates, times, and locations.

Parent/Guardian volunteers engage in a number of activities to recognize and thank faculty for their outstanding work. All families are encouraged to support the Friday treats delivered monthly to faculty lounges across the campus. Other appreciation activities happen in December, during May appreciation week and at the end of the school year. 

Volunteers help promote school spirit through organizing and managing our logo wear sales. Seattle Academy logowear is sold online and at special events throughout the year.

The Family Association’s Parent Education Committee is comprised of parent/guardian volunteers who plan and organize parent education events (speakers, panels, book groups, etc.) of special interest to our community.
