Love kids?
Concerned about urban education?
Want to learn more and do what you can to help?
K-12 Connections is a great way to learn about volunteer opportunities assisting K-12 field trips to WU and other locations, one-time volunteer projects in schools, and other opportunities to support K-12 students and discover public schools in St. Louis.
K-12 Connections seeks to connect Washington University students, staff, and faculty with volunteer opportunities in high-needs urban school districts in the St. Louis area. Volunteers are trained and “on-call”: as opportunities arise in schools, you’ll be notified and can sign up for anything that works in your schedule – there is no minimum commitment. Throughout the year, you are encouraged to attend specialized workshops and training sessions to learn more about St. Louis schools and about effective involvement in high-needs districts. By signing up for the K-12 Connections listserv, you’ll also be informed about special events or public lectures being held on campus related to urban education.
If you are a member of the Washington University community, sign up for the listerv here.You can also stop by our K-12 drop-in hours Tuesdays, 3-5pm in DUC 250 to talk about opportunities to get more involved in and learn about urban education in St. Louis.
If you are an educator in a St. Louis area school district and would like to let us know of opportunities at your school, or would like to learn how to connect with our students, staff, and faculty, click here.
