Volunteer Programs
Triton High School Volunteer Program
The Triton Regional School District brings together students from three communities for one purpose: to create a safe educational environment in which each student is nurtured academically, socially, and emotionally in a developmentally appropriate manner. Devotion to this purpose guides all the efforts of the school district. With student achievement as their overarching goal, the teachers and staff of the Triton Regional School District are devoted to guiding and supporting students in their efforts to become life-long learners.
The success of students in the Triton Regional School District is grounded in a dedicated partnership created by the schools and member communities. These groups work together consistently in the spirit of respect and cooperation to ensure that each student is encouraged to fulfill their potential. From when they enter our system to when they emerge, students are challenged to expand their understanding and awareness, and to learn the skills for creating rewarding and meaningful lives.
Together, the schools and communities provide the resources necessary for students, teachers, and staff to be as successful as they can be. A strong standards-based approach to a common core of learning reinforces educational excellence. Open and ongoing communication encourages high performance and recognition and appreciation of diverse backgrounds and talents provides inspiration for collaboration among all.
It is the goal of the Triton Regional School District through the school volunteer program to:
- Promote a home-community-school partnership for quality education
- Help the teachers and staff in any manner that enables them to do their jobs more effectively
- Assist learning processes by providing individual learning opportunities through the use of volunteers
- Stimulate interest, concern, and support of our educational system through constructive citizen participation
To help promote positive school and community relationships Triton Regional School District Volunteers:
- Recognize that well-educated children are our greatest natural resource
- Have good health and moral character
- Are willing to accept supervision as well as responsibility
- Understand and appreciate the work of the school staff
Community Service Club
The Community Service Club at Triton High School sponsors and/or participates in many school and community-based service projects or events whose individual and collective aims are to heighten students’ sensitivities toward volunteerism. It is the goal of the club to help a broad spectrum of students in grades 9-12 to see that volunteerism can make a difference in others’ lives as well as their own. To that end, membership in Community Service Club is encouraged for all students. Projects may be single or ongoing events such as participation in the Ovarian Cancer Awareness Fall Walk, the Jeanne Geiger Walk Against Domestic Violence, Salisbury, Newbury and Rowley events, meal delivery food prep, holiday bell ringing for the Salvation Army, Santa’s Helper program, several events for senior citizens, and other needs throughout the school year.
