Hay varias formas en que puede ser voluntario y demostrar su compromiso en Burton Tech. Se pueden obtener horas de servicio voluntario para padres apoyando directamente a la escuela y apoyando académicamente a su hijo. Se alienta a cada familia a ser voluntaria 40 horas por año escolar. Recomendamos que se apliquen 20 horas para apoyar a la escuela y 20 horas para apoyar a su hijo académicamente. Apoyo escolar Si un padre no se ofrece como voluntario, esto no tendrá ninguna repercusión en la matrícula del estudiante, sus calificaciones, créditos, posibilidad de graduarse o de participar en las actividades de graduación.
