ABOUT ROHAN WOODS SCHOOL

PARENT VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS


Get involved at Rohan Woods School as a parent volunteer to make a remarkable difference! As a small community, we rely on volunteers for many school events. Parent volunteers create a thriving educational environment, foster stronger community connections, and set a powerful example for our children.


As a parent, you are the most influential person in your child’s life. We ask that each parent signs up for a minimum of two opportunities for the 2023-2024 school year. Reach out to Brookes Bennett, Director of Advancement, for any questions on the events or activities. Thank you for your continued support of our school community!
