Are you interested in leading a Club?
Share Your Passion. Enrich Our Community. Support Our Students.
Honey Creek Community School Aftercare Program is excited to partner with individuals, staff members, volunteers, and community organizations who have ideas, skills, and programs that can enrich the experiences of our students and families.
Whether you are interested in leading a club, teaching a special skill, providing an enrichment activity, or partnering with Honey Creek in another way, there may be several ways to make your idea work.
Here at Honey Creek, we understand that every program is different. Our goal is to make the process as clear and welcoming as possible while ensuring that programs meet the school's insurance, safety, licensing, and operational requirements.
There Are Several Ways to Get Involved
Become a Volunteer
Want to share your time and talents simply because you love working with students?
Volunteers may provide approved activities without receiving payment. Volunteer activities may be eligible for coverage under Honey Creek's applicable school insurance, and room rental fees generally do not apply to approved volunteer activities.
Apply as a Honey Creek Staff Member
Honey Creek employees may be able to lead clubs or activities through the school.
In these situations, compensation is processed through Honey Creek, and the school can help coordinate the administrative and payment requirements associated with the program.
Community Partner or Independent Contractor
Have your own program, business, or specialized skill that you'd like to bring to Honey Creek?
Independent providers may be able to offer programs on school property as an approved community partner or contractor. Insurance and other documentation may be required, and facility-use and payment arrangements will be established based on the specific program.
Partner With a Honey Creek Staff Member
Some programs may be structured with an approved Honey Creek staff member participating alongside the program provider.
This may provide another pathway for bringing an enrichment opportunity to our students. Honey Creek will work with the provider to determine the appropriate structure and requirements.
Offer Your Program Off Campus
Your program does not necessarily have to take place at Honey Creek.
Some providers may choose to hold their activities at another community location, such as a library, community center, or other appropriate facility. In these cases, the provider and participating families are responsible for making appropriate arrangements for the location, transportation, supervision, and applicable insurance coverage.
Not Sure Which Option Is Right for You?
That's okay!
You don't need to figure everything out before reaching out to us. Once you tell us a little about your idea, Honey Creek can help identify the appropriate pathway and let you know what information or documentation may be needed.
Ready to Get Started?
Complete our Program & Service Provider Interest Form to tell us about yourself, your program, and what you would like to offer to the Honey Creek community.
After we receive your information, we'll review your request and follow up with the appropriate next steps.
We're Looking Forward to Learning About Your Program!
Honey Creek Community School values the creativity, knowledge, and talents that members of our community bring to our students.
