Volunteer

GSB offers many opportunities for parents and alumni to get involved in our school community.

Our success relies on enthusiastic volunteers. There is no amount of time or talent that cannot be used to help our school and, in turn, our students. To learn more, please read about the many volunteer opportunities listed below and join our efforts today by signing up on the online volunteer form.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

GSB FUND PROMOTION

The Annual Fund consists of unrestricted charitable financial contributions to the school. Tuition income does not cover the cost of operating any independent school and GSB counts on additional gifts from parents, alumni, grandparents, and friends to help support its programs. The GSB Fund committee works with the school’s Office of Institutional Advancement to contact parents throughout the year through phonathons, letters, and personal solicitations.

ARTS

Arts volunteers provide support primarily for the Upper School drama department productions, band concerts, and chorale performances, as well as student art shows. Volunteers are needed to help organize the choral music library in the Chapel, assist with set construction, paint and decorate the set, and sew costumes for the theatrical productions. Baking for performances and art show is also needed.

ATHLETIC BOOSTER CLUB

The Athletic Booster Club is a fund- and spirit-raising organization that benefits our student-athletes. Your support is welcomed in the form of an annually renewable membership, and in various volunteer opportunities such as becoming a team parent in the Upper and Middle Schools, helping with concessions at Cox Lodge and in the Athletic Center, decorating for Homecoming/Family Day and "Spirit" days throughout the year, and helping during Lower School events.
