Dear Volunteer,

On behalf of Orlando Science School, we would like to thank you for inquiring about volunteering at the Orlando Science Schools! Our mission is to lead our students to success with the support and involvement of families and the community. Volunteers play a huge role in supporting students, teachers, and schools.

We are excited to invite you to the new, interactive Volunteer Management System, which allows volunteers to sign up or renew accounts, and select their preferred volunteer service opportunity.

If you haven’t already, refer to the attached Sign Up Steps sheet to reactivate or create your ADDitions Volunteer Account for the 2020-2021 school year.
