Volunteer Opportunities

Please email School and Community Liaison Graciela Guevara for volunteer information.

Being involved at your student’s school is a great way to help your student succeed!

North High has many opportunities for parents, guardians and community members to get involved.

There are typically several opportunities to volunteer your time or donate items as needed throughout the school year. 

For the safety of our students and staff, Denver Public Schools has a volunteer application and background check process which is operated out of the Office of Volunteer Services. All volunteer opportunities require a background check. There are several categories of volunteers which require a criminal background check under certain conditions. Information can be found on the DPS Volunteer Services website.

Upcoming Fundraisers

North High families are welcomed and encouraged to participate in fundraising for our students. View information on upcoming fundraisers.
