Volunteers are a key component of our success at Villa Maria Academy. Volunteers help in everyday class life as Home Room Parents, Cafeteria Aides, Library Aides, Field Trip Chaperones, Parent Ambassadors, etc.  Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer with us at Villa!

Volunteers also help drive Parent Guild events that highlight each year’s calendar. Interested in volunteering for a PG event? For more information, contact Parent Guild Presidents, Lauray and Peter Famiglio at vmalspg@gmail.com.
