Be a Volunteer at POES

• Volunteer Video - Must watch the Volunteer Video before you may volunteer in the school. To schedule a time to see the video, please call the office at 410-672-7591. If you have already seen the video, you do not have to view it again, but the school must have a record of it.

• Scan driver’s license - All volunteers (and visitors) will need to check in at the office by presenting your driver’s license.

• Provide email address - Volunteers are also asked to provide an email address upon the initial scan of the driver’s license. By doing so, each volunteer should receive an email from www.V-Volunteer.com with instructions on how to set up an individual page on which volunteers may log volunteer hours worked at home or after regular school hours.

• Check in – Check in with the office upon entering the school. As you volunteer time is very much appreciated, it is also important to indicate to the staff if you are volunteering as part of a group i.e. military, college, seniors, etc.

• Check out - Check out at the office before leaving school. Your volunteer time is then recorded electronically so we may accurately account for all volunteer hours. Also, in the event of an emergency, the office staff would realize whether any volunteers (or visitors) are present at POES or not.
