Volunteering
Thank you for taking an interest in volunteering at Dr. Davey Elementary.
At HWDSB, we believe volunteers play a very important role in our schools. Our volunteers help enrich our students’ educational experiences and bridge the gap between schools and our community. Volunteers often work directly or along side students and may help oversee activities for safety, guidance, regulation or direction.
Beginning February 1, 2026, all volunteers in HWDSB schools MUST provide a new Vulnerable Sector Screening every five years. Volunteers must also sign a current offence declaration each year, in between Vulnerable Sector Screening updates. We want everyone at HWDSB to be safe in our buildings and the updated Vulnerable Sector Screening is one way we can protect our students. We recognize the cost of completing a Vulnerable Sector Screening can be a barrier for some volunteers. If this is an issue, please speak with your Principal directly.
If you have any questions about volunteering in our schools, please connect with your school Principal.
Thank you for taking the next step. We look forward to welcoming you at Dr. Davey. Please note that volunteer placement and availability are at the discretion of the school principal, who will review your application and be in touch if there is a need at our school.
