BEACON - Volunteer Opportunity for PARENTS!



 Attention Parents! Volunteers Needed!

BEACON Financial Aid Program
The Duval County Public Schools’ BEACON program is seeking volunteers to assure that high school seniors receive critical information about the college financial aid process through a personal, small group information session with a trained volunteer.  Bringing Economic And Career Opportunities Nearer (BEACON) is a district-wide effort to provide assistance to every high school senior.  The DCPS School Counseling Department recruits and trains volunteers for this very large outreach effort!  We are looking for adults who can attend a half day training on January 23 from 8-12, and commit to all the days needed (January 26th & 27th; 7:00 a.m. - 1:30 p.m.)  If  you are interested in this program, please complete this form and submit as soon as possible.  If you have questions, please contact Joni Shook at shookj@duvalschools.org.
