Volunteer Opportunities

We know that many hands make light work, and coming together with other parents to support special projects strengthens the school culture. 

Portland Waldorf School encourages every parent, caregiver, student and community member to get involved as a volunteer.

Parent Ambassador Program

The Parent Ambassador Program is designed to harness the diverse talents and passions of our parent/caregiver body to support various facets of school life, while embodying the core values of Waldorf education. Read the 2024 Development Back To School Letter and visit the Program Overview to learn more about the Ambassador roles, Benefits of Participation, and sign up instructions.

Parent Association

The Parent Association is a volunteer group with at least two Parent Representatives per class and PWS Administration members. Meetings occur monthly, usually the first Monday. All parents and caregivers are welcome to attend.

Our mission is to:

  • Enhance community life

  • Improve communication among faculty, administration, and parents

  • Promote the school’s cultural mission as defined by the College of Teachers

For questions or to join, email us or contact your child’s class teacher.
