Policies and Procedures

Clear policies and procedures help organizations, businesses, and schools operate effectively, consistently, and with excellence. At Kairos Public Schools (KPS), we believe transparency and accessibility are essential to building a strong school community. We are committed to making our policies and procedures readily available to families, staff, and community members. Please explore the policies and procedures listed to the side to find answers to your questions and learn more about our practices and expectations.

 

Parent Volunteer Hours

Family engagement is an important component of the Kairos Public Schools educational program. Parent and guardian participation enriches our school community, strengthens the learning environment, and contributes to the success of our scholars.

To encourage meaningful family involvement, KPS asks each family to contribute 30 hours of volunteer service during the school year. KPS provides and maintains a comprehensive list of volunteer opportunities to help families identify ways to participate and support our school community.

We recognize that families have different circumstances, schedules, and capacities for volunteering. While we strongly encourage family participation, volunteer hours are entirely voluntary. No applicant or scholar will be denied admission, excluded from continued enrollment, or prohibited from participating in school activities because a parent or guardian is unable to fulfill the 30-hour volunteer expectation.
