Volunteer at View Ridge Elementary!
Welcome to View Ridge volunteering! We’re grateful for everyone who gives their time to make our school a wonderful place to learn and grow. Whether you can help out regularly during the school day, volunteer occasionally when your schedule allows, or lend a hand for a few hours at an evening event, there are many ways to make a difference. We welcome parents, family members, and other community members, and we’re happy to help you find an opportunity that’s right for you!
Before you volunteer
Volunteers who help during the school day, in classrooms, or on field trips need to complete the Seattle Public Schools (SPS) volunteer application and background check. See the SPS Volunteer Application Process section below for details.
Volunteering at PTA events outside the school day generally does not require SPS verification.
Confused about where to start?
We are happy to help! Get in touch with our Volunteer Coordinator by emailing
