Volunteer at Coe

Volunteers are an important part of Coe’s instructional program. When volunteers commit to serving at a school, students achieve higher grades, have access to more opportunities, and gain community connections to help them thrive.

• Research shows that students who receive direct support from volunteer tutors achieve higher grades, test scores, and are more likely to graduate.
• When volunteers provide clerical support to staff, educators have more time for instruction and individualized support for students.
• Volunteers make programs supporting the lowest-income students possible: Friday food backpacks preventing weekend hunger, school supply drives, etc.
• Schools with large numbers of volunteers offer students more learning experiences through clubs, field trips, enrichment.
