  • It must be understood that decisions on high school volunteering will be made keeping the best interests of the middle school students and productions in mind.
  • We regret that we may not be able to successfully place every potential high school student volunteer.
​The Fine Print:
  • Members of the creative team (music director, director, choreographer, etc.) may nominate high school student volunteers; however these candidates still need to go through the volunteer email request process. The event chair / producer (or designee) is ultimately responsible for accepting volunteers.
  • In case of limited volunteer positions and/or too many applications, the decision to accept an applicant will be based on the needs of the event (i.e., it may not be a first come-first served situation).
  • Depending on the position and the event, there may be a preference for volunteers that have experienced the high school dramas/choral/improv program; however, all are encouraged to apply.
  • High school volunteers require a signed High School Student Volunteer Permission Slip (valid for the academic year). 
  • Review AACPS background check requirements: https://www.aacps.org/page/chaperonevolunteer-background-investigations/
  • It is the high school student’s responsibility to keep track of volunteer hours for ITS or NHS credit – any board member or the creative team staff member may vouch for hours served.
