Volunteer at Madrona Elementary

There are many opportunities to volunteer at the school! Volunteers can support at recess, lunch, and greeting times. There may also be opportunities to volunteer in your child’s classroom - either on a regular basis or one-off like field trips.

To volunteer at the school, you must be approved by Seattle Public Schools. Find more information and apply here:
