On behalf of Orlando Science Charter School K-8, we would like to thank you for your interest in volunteering! Family and community volunteers play a huge role in leading our students to success by supporting students, teachers, and schools.
We utilize the OCPS ADDitions Volunteer Management System which gives volunteers access to their very own Dashboard.
If you haven’t already, refer to the Sign Up Steps document to reactivate or create your ADDitions Volunteer Account and learn how to Search Opportunities at Orlando Science Charter School K-8. ADDitions Volunteer accounts must be reactivated annually.
Volunteer Opportunities throughout the year include, but are certainly not limited to: Field Trips, Picture Day, Clubs, Classroom Assistant, STEM Days, AR Celebrations, Mad Scientist Night, Field Day, Scholastic Book Fair, and more. We look forward to seeing you around campus.
Dear Parents/Students,
The summer is the perfect time for students to reap the many rewards of independent reading. As educators, we realize the importance of reading throughout the school year and would like to encourage reading during the summer as a way for students to maintain reading levels and skills they have acquired within the school year.
In order to facilitate reading during the summer, we have linked the 2024-2025 Sunshine State Reading Lists here.
The links below will take you to the SSYRA books for the 2024-2025 school year.
