As the Echo Hill PTO, we couldn't do what we do without a committed and growing team of volunteers. Parents, grandparents, neighbors, and friends, each working side by side toward a common goal: 

Making Echo Hill Elementary School the best place it can be!

​

If you would like to get involved at Echo Hill, please follow these simple steps:
 

1. Complete the Linn-Mar Volunteer Registration Application. This form is a one-time-only form to be completed for any person new to our school or new to the district, establishing them as ready to serve our students. The district will contact you once submitted to schedule a brief orientation. 
    

2. If you are an active volunteer that has already completed the volunteer orientation in Step 1,  you are ready to serve our students! 
    

3. Once you have registered and attended an orientation session, you are then approved and automatically added to the distribution list. You will receive regular email communication about opportunities to volunteer at Echo Hill, including the monthly Volunteer Workshop, held on the third Thursday of every month. 
   
   - Attend the next PTO meeting to get a feel for the PTO's work, priorities, and needs. Everyone is welcome at PTO meetings.
   
   - "Like" the Echo Hill PTO Facebook page for additional info; this page is managed by the PTO and includes regular updates. You may also want to "like" the Echo Hill Elementary Families - Iowa private Facebook group for updates and discussion with other families with students attending Echo Hill. 
    

4. After each volunteer session, please remember to log your volunteer time. This includes attending PTO meetings, participating in a volunteer workshop, or performing any activity for the PTO, whether it takes 30 minutes, three hours, or three days. Every minute counts! Keeping track of volunteer time helps us appreciate and recognize the work of our volunteers all year long. Volunteer hours that are done during the school day will automatically be logged when you log in and out of the school building. Any hours done from home or after-school hours where you aren't able to sign-in at the building can be logged through the portal.

 

Links to both the application and the sign-in for your Raptor Volunteer Portal can be found on the Linn-Mar Volunteer site here: Volunteer Program - Linn-Mar Community School District
