How to Volunteer

Student safety is very important at Presentation and several screening requirements are in place to ensure we continue to keep everyone on our campus safe. There are different levels of clearance required based on if your volunteer duties involve working around our students or not.

Covid Vaccination

Live Scan Fingerprinting

Volunteers may need to complete a DOJ background check and be fingerprinted. Previous Live Scan fingerprinting DOES NOT transfer to Presentation but the fingerprinting completed through Presentation DOES NOT expire. Live Scan Fingerprinting must be completed through the Verify Group and costs $67 (you may qualify to waive the $25 Department of Justice fee if certain situations apply).

How to Get Involved

There are so many opportunities to get involved at Presentation. Your participation provides a meaningful and fulfilling experience for both you and your child, and is a fun way to meet other parents, create a support network and learn more about the school.

Below is a list of several different programs that rely on volunteer support to continue to provide exceptional opportunities for our Presentation students. Please check them out and find those that best fit your skills and availability. Feel free to reach out with any questions or comments.

Parent Connections Representative

A Parent Connection Representative’s (PCR) purpose is to connect with the incoming families and make their first year at Presentation engaging and welcoming. PCRs can be current or alum parents.
Each PCR will be provided with a list of incoming families (both incoming freshman and transfer who are grouped by zip code). Each PCR is asked to host an event prior to the beginning of school to create an opportunity for these new families to find community, ask questions, and listen to other Pres community members talk about their experience. These are meant to be very informal and social in nature… all of it is to make the new families feel welcome into the Presentation family and get to know their PCR so if they have questions during the year, they can reach out to them.
During the school year, PCRs will keep in regular contact with their assigned families to highlight upcoming events, answer any questions and keep the families feeling informed and connected.
If you would love to help other families feel as connected as you do or if you want to help ensure others don’t feel as lost as you were, volunteer to serve as a PCR and be a parent mentor.

Parent Ambassadors

A Parent Ambassador’s (PA) purpose is to work with Presentation’s Admissions Department to help market Presentation to prospective families. The Admissions Department hosts many events on campus and in the community to showcase all that Presentation has to offer. A PAs main role is to mingle with prospective families, highlight all the programs and assets that Presentation offers, and be a confident and informed member of the community.
Parent Ambassadors are not required to attend all events. There are many opportunities to serve and will be split amongst all the PAs. If you are comfortable speaking in front of people and love connecting with others through your love of Presentation, then join us as a PA. You are more than welcome to serve as both a Parent Connections Rep AND a Parent Ambassador.

Grade Level Representative

PRES Parents Association (PPA)

The PRES Parents Association (PPA) serves as the conduit between Presentation and the entire parent community. In order to ensure your students are receiving the best possible experience while at Presentation, we rely on parent feedback, volunteers, and leadership. The PPA works closely with Administration to ensure we are meeting two important benchmarks - filling volunteer opportunities and meeting fundraising goals in order to ensure every student wishing to attend Presentation is able to enjoy all the opportunities Presentation has to offer regardless of their financial situation. This is only possible when everyone lives out our motto “Not Words, But Deeds”.
