Help Cambridge Public School Students!

By Cambridge School Volunteers (CSV)

CSV volunteers support students by tutoring or mentoring. Some assist teachers in the classroom. We ask volunteers for 1 hour per week minimum. We place volunteers in all Cambridge Public Schools.

This program runs during the school year.

A volunteer's schedule depends on the grade level, volunteer program, and availability. We ask for a minimum of one hour per week, for at least 12 weeks.  Volunteer jobs are in person roles, subject to possible changes in the Cambridge Public Schools COVID-19 safety policies.

Ages: Adults.

A background (CORI) check and orientation is required, as well as immunization records.
