D6 Volunteers Receive President's Service Award
D6 volunteers receive President’s Service Award
Twenty-nine Greeley-Evans School District 6 volunteers have qualified to receive the President’s Volunteer Service Award for the hours they have logged this year working in schools and at other school district sites.
The President’s Volunteer Service Award recognizes United States citizens and residents who volunteer in their communities to make a difference in six areas of focus, one of which is education.
The award honors adults in three categories: Gold for volunteers who have served 500 hours or more; silver for donating 250-499 hours of service; and bronze for those who have given 100-249 hours of service. District 6 limits school-based volunteers to adults over the age of 18 because of safety protocols requiring a criminal background check for individuals who will be working with and around children.
“We simply couldn’t provide the services we do for our students without the significant support we receive from our volunteers,” said Superintendent Dr. Deirdre Pilch. “Our volunteers logged more than 31,000 hours of service this school year, which is a tremendous contribution of time, effort and expertise. We are grateful to all those who serve District 6 and our students.”
