Registration assumes that each family will have one adult serve as a volunteer during testing. Failure to do so will result in children not being tested or having their tests scored. No refunds of testing fees will be made except in emergency circumstances as determined by the GHE board.
If you are registering more than one child - please pick the same volunteer options as on the first child's registration.
You will be prompted to fill out a new form for each registration (each student testing)
**Depending on the needs each year, some jobs may not be filled and you may not get your first choice. We will make every effort to accommodate someone who can not be physically present during, but demand may make it impossible to fill such requests. If you absolutely can not work during the three testing days from 9am until 1pm PLEASE note that on the registration form in the blank space allowed. If we are unable to accommodate you, we can refund your test registration fee if we are aware of this PRIOR to the tests being ordered.
You may also have some other adult substitute for you during testing, but you will need to receive permission for this from the Volunteer Coordinator. Please indicate this on this application. If we are unable to accommodate you, and you can not serve, we can refund your test registration fee if we are aware of this PRIOR to the tests being ordered.
