Volunteers are Available to Support OCDSB Students
Did you know that the Ottawa Network for Education (ONFE) has an Volunteers in Education (VIE) program that matches skilled community volunteers with the specific needs of students and teachers in the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board?
We understand the challenge that today’s educators face each day. It is a tremendous responsibility to teach and meet the diverse needs of every student in a classroom, including English language learners and children with learning challenges. That is why we, and our dedicated group of volunteers, are here and eager to provide you and your students with extra support.
We ensure that all volunteers have a current Police Vulnerable Sector Check (PVSC), and have the right skills, interests and commitment to meet your needs.
See below for more information. To request volunteers, contact Jolly Bimbachi at jbimbachi@onfe-rope.ca.
